Kale aims to foster the development of the social entrepreneurship (SOCENT) ecosystem in Turkiye seeking strong partnerships creating synergies which may arise from accessing other ecosystems rather than SOCENT. With her strong position within the Turkish ecosystem Kale Group can provide access to various networks whereas the Group will demand access to international SOCENT networks to enable mutual knowledge transfer between Turkish and international ecosystems as well as funding opportunities.
