The University of Turin is co-hosting the Social Business Academia Forum (SBAF), with the Yunus Centre. This Summit is the first in-person gathering of social business activists, entrepreneurs, academicians, researchers and students, since the pandemic started in 2020. The Global Social Business Summit is always designed as a very intensive two-day event leading to many new social business initiatives.
