Case Studies
What will you find in a case study?
The Care Economy Knowledge Hub aims to address the knowledge gap around care businesses by showcasing various business models and creating a resource base for relevant stakeholders. These case studies present care economy social innovations and impactful businesses, helping to demonstrate viable and impactful business models. They present a wide variety of ways in which care work can be recognized, rewarded, reduced and redistributed, from different sectors and geographies, to different stages of the growth journey and business models, to different products and services. The case studies offer a unique and nuanced understanding of the businesses’ theories of change and impact journeys. They also help to share the lessons these innovators have learned on their pathways to scale, and it is our hope that they will attract more capital into the care economy for deepened impact.
