Who we are

The Innovation Foundation, empowered by the Adecco Group

The Innovation Foundation helps underserved populations increase their employability and access to labour markets to secure sustainable livelihoods. That is our mission. We see a future where everyone can access the world of work. That is our vision. Our mission and vision both come to life through the process of the Social Innovation Lab, with which we operate.

The first step is to identify the people who are falling out of the workforce and their unmet needs. We then develop solutions to meet those needs, working with experts and end-users. Finally, our prototypes are taken out into the world with the right partners on the ground - helping to make a world where everyone can access sustainable and fulfilling work.

As the world’s leading talent advisory and solutions company, creating social value is in the DNA of the Adecco Group. We connect people and companies with opportunity and help them find their paths. But we also have a wider responsibility to society – to advocate and act for a better, fairer world of work. We do this through the Innovation Foundation, with the full support of the Group’s leadership. That is our vision. Our mission and vision both come to life through the process of the Social Innovation Lab, with which we operate.
