Juan Antonio Pedreño, President of SEE and CEPES, commented on the decisive moment this business model is experiencing: To achieve this, we must all work together. Institutions and socio-economics. It is a collective effort and the creation of public policies that support the social economy. “Working together towards goals when it matters most.”
Among the objectives set out by the CEPES President, the renewal of the European Parliament’s socio-economic group stands out, and its continuation is “essential” if it is to put the social economy at the center of public policy. Furthermore, Prime Minister Pedreño expressed satisfaction with the support already shown by five political groups for the resumption of the Forum and encouraged them to continue their work at all levels: European, national, regional and local.
In this sense, People’s Party MP Maravilas Abadia Jobel declared that “social economy is an essential pillar for Europe’s economic development, cohesion and competitiveness.” He added that the new Parliament must continue the “good work” of the previous Socio-Economic Intergroup and ensure the implementation of the European Socio-Economic Action Plan to keep this business model at the heart of the European Union. he added.
The second objective stated by Mr. Pedreño is to appoint a commissioner with competence in the socio-economic field to coordinate the action plan and development of the socio-economic industrial ecosystem in all areas of activity of the various socio-economic directorates.

Sent.
For Pedreño, the positive outcome of both demands will help build the institutional architecture of the social economy. Social business models exist in all economic sectors and are at the forefront of the major transformation that the European Union is experiencing, accounting for 6.5% of the world’s total. 8% of employment and GDP (4.3 million businesses, 11.5 million workers).
