Is the UK Government involved with funding social enterprise efforts?

Depending upon how you plan onfunding your social enterprisebusiness, there may indeed be UK Government support programs that could help you out.

Many social media networks are learning to commercialize themselves, as a way to keep up with changing Internet trends, perhaps most notably Facebook’s alterations to how shared content appears in timelines so that it skews towards paid advertisements as a way to force businesses to pay to get their message out to all of the people who are following them.

Funding social enterprise efforts will not always make sense to UK Government funding sources who may not be convinced that even making them a success in terms of how popular they are will make them successful as small businesses, meaning you will have to put forward information that will make this argument for you. Preparing a proper business plan and financial projections outlining how commercialization will occur is necessary to make this point.
