97th Impact for Breakfast London

The journey of identifying and supporting excellent social entrepreneurs and sustainable solution focused charities to unleash potential in communities across Asia, Africa and Latin America

The Alquity shared values business model re-invests 10% of revenue into developing communities. In the last year, collaboration with the World Bank, Philanthropy University and others they have launched the Transforming Lives Awards. Their vision is to become the leading awards programme for sustainable, scalable solutions particularly those supporting growth in sustainable livelihoods and the achievement of UN Sustainable Development Goal 8; economic growth and decent work for all. In doing so, creating an ecosystem of “shared values” businesses who channel their donations through the awards to maximise their impact. The Awards, totalling over $500,000 in the first year, offer new paths to capital, profile and expert advice so that winners can invest in their futures and the futures of those they serve. 

This interactive presentation will share their journey in building the awards and the lessons learned thus far.

Speakers

Paul Robinson (Alquity Founder and Executive Chairman), Suresh Mistry (Alquity Co-Founder) and Connor Diemund-Yauman (Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Philanthropy University)
