My energy for the work we do at GoodBrand is continually renewed by its purposeful nature, the fellowship and enthusiasm of clients, and being able to apply insight, analysis and creativity to produce unexpected and inspiring solutions. Clients will often ask ‘What is impact investment and what can it do to help us?’ Impact investment represents a new source of finance for Corporate Social Innovation. I work with clients to develop innovative financing solutions and co-funding opportunities for their corporate programmes, helping them to deliver positive social and environmental impact in addition to financial returns. If you want to be at the frontier of social innovation - come and talk to us. Areas of expertise: Strategy | Impact Investment | Business Modelling | Solution Operationalisation | Social Enterprise Client and work experience: Premier Foods | United Biscuits | Mondelēz | Nestlé | Unilever | Danone Show less
