S4BC Innovative Skills For Benefit Companies

Project n° 2021-1-IT01-KA220-VET-000034806

The evolution of Benefit Companies (BCS) (Socially responsible companies committed to sustainability and the 17 SDGs 2030, known in Spain as “Companies with a Purpose”) is an absolutely innovative and recent phenomenon. Current health conditions (Covid-19) show the importance of obtaining economic results with a positive impact on the community. The transformation towards the new business model of Benefit Companies (BCS) can only be achieved through a profound evolution of Human Resources. However, although the skills and abilities of management roles are already being updated, there is no adequate plan to train and update the professional figures who will have to implement the transformation within companies.

The main objective of this project funded within the framework of the EU program ERASMUS+ is to analyze the evolution of the business models of Benefit Companies (BCS) and define the map of specific training needs for companies in Italy, Lithuania, Spain , Portugal, Ireland and in the EU as a whole.

The specific objective is to identify the training needs and training gaps of the BCS to try to outline the framework of competencies that a company needs to become a BC.
