Goal
"Bottom-up initiatives and social enterprises are of great value to society, but not everyone is familiar with them. That is why the Kracht in NL foundation developed the MAEX, the Social AEX. On this online platform, initiatives and social enterprises from major cities can present themselves to the outside world free of charge, which thousands have already done. In addition, they can indicate what they do exactly, but also who they reach and what they need. Maex is thus not only a source of information about initiatives, but also makes it possible for companies, governments or institutions to engage them. The idea is to collaborate with maximum social impact. Kracht in NL hopes that MAEX can provide extra support for a social initiative, both in their survival and in their growth."
