The event "Financial Tools for Social and Solidarity Economy" was held on January 10, 2020, at the Antonis Tritsis amphitheater in Athens, Greece. The event was organized by the Support Center for Social and Solidarity Economy of the Central Athens Area. The main goal of the event was to inform and educate social and solidarity economy organizations about available financial tools and resources.

The event featured presentations by experts in the field, including Dimitris Mouzakis and Giorgos Ploumpidis from the Support Center, Thanos Mondanos from Action Finance Initiative, and Giannis Kontakos from Kontakos Management Consultants. The presentations covered topics such as financing options, business planning, and marketing strategies for social and solidarity economy organizations.

The event was attended by approximately 50 people, mostly members of existing social and solidarity economy organizations, as well as some individuals interested in starting their own social enterprises. The attendees represented a diverse range of sectors, including agriculture, fair trade, hospitality, construction, and arts. The majority of attendees were between 30-45 years old, with a smaller number of older or younger participants.

The discussion during the event focused on financing options, including microcredits, crowdfunding, and European Social Fund (ESF) programs. The attendees asked questions about the terms and conditions of these financing options, as well as the challenges and opportunities associated with them. The event also provided an opportunity for networking and exchange of ideas among social and solidarity economy organizations.
