4:30 pm to 7:00 pm

The Community Shares Unit (CSU) will celebrate its second birthday in October and to mark the occasion we are hosting a reception at the Impact Hub, Westminster in London.

Open to all those involved and interested in community share offers, this get-together will also be a fitting occasion to launch the Community Shares Compliance Mark which is being piloted from Autumn 2014.

We are thrilled to use this occassion as a soft launch for the Mark, where we will also be celebrating the first group of community shares practitioners working towards being licensed to issue the compliance accreditation.

It will also be an opportunity for the sector to come together to find out about the latest trends in the market, with the release of the findings from the UK’s largest ever crowdfunding and community shares study, undertaken by NESTA and Cambridge University, and supported by the CSU.
