El CADESC aims to provide applied scientific knowledge to strategic decision-making and the design and implementation of public policies. This purpose is specified in four main objectives: generation of applied knowledge, foresight and innovation, development of the business fabric, and articulation of collaboration networks. Its president will be Juanjo Llopis, general director of the Caixa Enginyers Group

According to Eloi Serrano, director of CADESC and the Chair of Social Economy at TecnoCampus, "CADESC tries to promote the social economy, providing knowledge that guides public policies to strengthen the fabric and value the business model of the social economy.
