In the Pioneers Post Collections, you will find compilations of stories grouped around key themes, subjects and events. Often these are curated in collaboration with leading organisations across the impact space, as part of one of our Content Partnerships.
In our Collections section, you will be able to explore important developments, trends and events that we’ve decided to give a particular editorial focus.
Specific series of content are also 'tagged', and if you follow a 'tag' (to be found at the bottom of each article), you will see all the stories grouped under that series or theme, even if they are not part of a specific content collection (for example, our 'Voices from the frontline', featuring leading social entrepreneurs on overcoming difficult challenges in their organisation).
Often, we co-create collections of stories in collaboration with a range of social innovation partners. Some examples include:
In partnership with the British Council, we explore social enterprise across the world, take a look at the opportunities and challenges in policy and practice – and shine a light on some of the leading examples of social innovation.
For more than two years, we have been working in partnership with EVPA on a collection we have called The Impact Papers – a series exploring, celebrating and asking honest questions about investing for impact, featuring some of the world’s leading thinkers and innovators in the impact space.
The NatWest SE100 Index and Social Business Awards was created by Pioneers Post in partnerhsip with NatWest bank – every year we name, celebrate and learn from the UK's 100 most impressive social enterprises, with awards given in a range of categories such as 'Growth Champion', 'Impact Champion' and 'Trailblazing Newcomer'. Our WISE100 (Women in Social Enterprise) programme is specifically aimed at supporting, celebrating and connecting leading and aspiring women leaders in social enterprise and impact investing.
Pioneers Post has been a media partner for the Social Enterprise World Forum since it began more than a decade ago. Each year the forum takes place in a different country and continent, and brings together people from all over the globe to share stories, learn from each other and celebrate progress.

How we organise content across our website
Pioneers Post divides its content into key sections that you can navigate via our menu:
News & Views – what happened when and what we think about it
Business School – how did it happen and how to do it better
Collections – thematic and partner-curated content streams
Publications – reports, guides and multimedia features that we've either produced ourselves or want to share
Videos and Podcasts – from 60-second video-bites to classic 3-minute film interviews, from 1-2-1 business profiles to 30-minute podcast discussions, our multimedia journalism team uses all the creative skills at their disposal to produce engaging audio and visual content
About – where you can find more details about our team, aims, history and values, plus important policies covering our editorial practice, privacy and diversity issues
Impact Library – for SUBSCRIBERS ONLY, we have also created the Pioneers Post Impact Library (see details below)
As part of our social mission we offer news and partnership content on an open, freely accessible basis.
But to give added value to our subcribers – and maintain our own financial sustainability as a social enterprise – we have built the Pioneers Post Impact Library, a rich resource including hundreds of real-world insights from leading social entrepreneurs and impact investors around the world, and detailed analysis from our own reporters.
Each week, we hand-pick a number of ‘hidden gems’ from our Impact Library to share through our newsletter and social media.
To access the Impact Library, you'll need to log in to your Pioneers Post account – or purchase a subscription to create one.
By taking out a subscription, not only will you be getting access to premium content that helps you do good business better, you'll also be joining our worldwide community of mission-driven entrepreneurs. Plus, you'll be supporting our social enterprise: all contributions are being ploughed back into our independent news and storytelling platform, dedicated to cover social enterprise, impact investing and purpose-led business around the globe.
