We work across three business strands to support and stimulate social innovation in Scotland:
- A place to meet, work and collaborate. The Melting Pot is your go-to destination for flexible, creative and budget-friendly solutions for today’s dynamic world of work. Our central Edinburgh coworking hub offers a warm and inviting workspace away from home, whilst our meeting rooms provide a convenient venue for upcoming events. Most importantly, here you can find our friendly, engaged community of individuals and organisations doing good for people and the planet.
- A champion of Good Ideas. Our incubator programme equips budding social entrepreneurs with the knowledge, skills and networks to turn ideas into positive, impactful ventures.
