Social Value Workshops: Turn Social Impact into Competitive Advantage

About this event

The workshops cover three core areas: understanding how social value strengthens tender submissions, developing a practical strategy to embed social impact into operations, and learning to measure and communicate impact using recognised frameworks like National TOMs and Social Return on Investment.

Delivered by specialists from GM Business Growth Hub and a sustainability consultant, sessions combine strategic guidance with practical tools for businesses at different stages of social value integration.

Participants will gain insight into how public sector procurement now prioritises social value, environmental responsibility, and local employment. The workshops help businesses quantify their impact on carbon reduction, community wellbeing, and sustainability—directly translating into competitive advantage in tenders and attracting clients, partners, and talent.
