Description
High-impact, social SMEs remain broadly unknown to impact
investors and asset managers due to limited information and
identification problems.
To overcome the asymmetry of information and provide reliable
guidance to Swiss asset managers, we aim to create an automated big
data platform for the identification, classification, and
geolocalization of social SMEs that provide solutions to specific
SDGs.
