What is the Ashoka Support Network?
Ashoka offers a wealth of resources, but the most valuable are Ashoka Fellows— the world’s leading social entrepreneurs.
The Ashoka Support Network (ASN), founded in 2004, is a global community of +300 business leaders, philanthropists, and entrepreneurs' members who provide their expertise, financial support, networks and contacts to accompany these social innovators. By connecting and interacting with them, ASN members gain inspiration and empowerment to shape a better world.

Perrine de le Court
Director Belgium
Perrine de le Court joined Ashoka Belgium as Co-Director in September 2018. Together with Elena Arène she will lead the Belgian Ashoka office by sharing responsibilities among Ashoka Belgium's different programmes. Perrine has professional experience, both in the private sector (5 years at Regus, her last job) and with International Organisations like UNICEF & IMBEWU, where she has worked for over 10 years in Europe and in Africa. After an enriching experience at Regus, she was missing the passion and sense of purpose that working in the social sector gave her. She particularly enjoys coaching, talent development and creating a team spirit as well as building strong partnerships across sectors.
