This week, Maya and Vitlena, co-founders of MVIdee and members of the CEFEC Executive Board, joined social entrepreneurs, researchers and changemakers from across Europe at the organisation’s 40th annual conference in Bled, Slovenia.

Action / Initiatives

Over two days, participants exchanged ideas, shared experiences, and explored how social innovation, sustainability, circular economy practices and inclusive business models can contribute to stronger and more resilient communities.
For Maya and Vitlena, the conference was not only an opportunity to contribute to discussions on the future of the social economy sector but also a chance to learn from inspiring initiatives and connect with people driving positive change across Europe.
Some of the most valuable moments happened between sessions — through conversations, shared experiences and unexpected connections that reminded us how much we can learn from one another.
