The European Union Advisory Board is a joint initiative of the European Commission (EC), the European Investment Fund (EIF) and the European Investment Bank (EIB) (the latter two part of the EIB Group), three institutions enjoying a long-standing co-operation in the social entrepreneurship, social inclusion and impact investing space. In particular, over the past years, from our headquarters in Brussels and Luxembourg, we have joined forces to promote a joint agenda for fostering social entrepreneurship and social inclusion in Europe and beyond.
