TIS Weekly (#111): Social Innovation Without The Tech
[July 23rd, 2017]
Last week we zoomed in on social innovation brought forth by technical advancements. In this newsletter however, we’ll explore the positive impact of communities. No tech involved. Just people enabling people. Three simple ideas, to empower (marginalized) groups.
Oh, and on a side note: we are looking for an Assistant Community Manager (intern)!

Inclusive Cinema Club
Open Cinema (2009) wants to bring the cinema to everybody. By organizing film clubs or even assist in the making of films. It started out as a creative outlet for homeless people, but quickly grew out to a proper social enterprise coordinating an international network of community cinemas.

However, how do you create a sustainable revenue model for this specific community and knowledge-sharing service? In the project Hub in A Box several innovation hubs join forces to try and provide an answer.
