WHAT WE DO
The Touchpoint for the Yunus Global Network in Thailand.
From the Top Down...
We Co-create Social Businesses with Large Corporations for Long-Term Sustainability Impact...
Building off the best practices of Grameen social businesses in Bangladesh and around the world, Yunus Thailand works with large corporations to create joint-venture, non-dividend subsidiaries to solve human problems. Our team combines corporate, entrepreneurial and community-based development experience from Thailand and internationally to co-create with corporate teams.
From the Bottom Up...
Yunus Thailand Incubates & Accelerates Social Businesses, Driving Growth in the Social Economy
By providing financing and training-mentorship support, Yunus Thailand supports social entrepreneurs in their early stage growth. We combine a broad-base of cross-sector expertise with business development experience to boost social entrepreneurs and drive bottom-up, inclusive growth in Thailand.
We also work with donors, venture philanthropists and sustainability departments to manage social business investments in Thailand.
Partnerships at the Core...
The Corporate Action Tank Thailand Fosters Multi-Stakeholder Partnerships for Social Business...
Acknowledging the capacity for large businesses to deliver economies of scale, the Corporate Action Tank builds ecosystems of partners and facilitates an inclusive co-creation process, where all stakeholders participate in the design and implementation of social business initiatives. Yunus Thailand brings the Corporate Action Tank to Thailand after its successful implementation in France, India and Brazil by the Yunus Global Network.
Mindset Change...
We work to engage Thai people in Social Business, promoting a culture of Sufficiency
Inspired his Late Majesty’s Philosophy of Sufficiency Economy, Yunus Thailand promotes sufficiency virtues and knowledge that drive social business. By engaging Thai’s through events, workshops, exchanges and media, Yunus Thailand drives citizen-engagement in social business that will contribute to more sustainable consumer habits and increasing participation in Social Business and the Sufficiency Economy.
Thought Leadership for the Future...
