Capita’s National Conference on Commissioning Social Enterprise - Friday 27th April 2012 – Central London

The launch of the Open Public Services White Paper last year and the introduction of the Public Services (Social Value) Bill in Parliament has meant that the role of Social Enterprise in public service delivery is becoming ever greater.

London, United Kingdom, February 02, 2012 --(PR.com)-- With greater emphasis now being placed on the consideration of social value in public sector contracts, Capita’s National Commissioning Social Enterprise Conference brings together leading Public Sector bodies and innovative Social Enterprise organisations to examine the impact of these policy developments and provide you with examples of best practice in building new commissioner provider partnerships.
