About this Event
Join fellow founders of social impact organisations at our annual Social Founders Forum, hosted by EY, in their beautiful Vista Suite looking over the Thames, Tower Bridge and the Tower of London.
Our half-day morning Forum, in-person and including a light lunch and networking, will bring together 40 social impact founders to share solutions, stories and learnings in a friendly and safe space.
Our theme this year is ‘Building a positive Culture’ - how you, as the founder of your impact organisation, can best build, inspire, enable and lead a culture that maximises wellbeing, kindness, respect and equity, for all who interact with your organisation.
We believe that a culture of kindness, led by us as founders, is also the key to delivering impact, sustainable business models, scale (if you want scale), and resilience - resilience for you, your team and organisation, and the communities you support.
We’re deliberately setting an open theme, which will lead to insights, challenges and debate about many relevant issues, alongside solutions to how as social impact founders we can build positive culture in and around our organisations, as we move along our founder journey, from start-up to stepping down, and maybe to starting again.
Creating a positive culture in such tough times is no easy feat. Change and challenges are all around us, at all levels, both inside and outside our organisations. We are constantly being challenged, in our values, in available resources, in our business models, in our visibility as founders, in our impact story, and hugely on behalf of, and often by, our teams, beneficiaries, communities, funders and partners.
As social impact founders, our own expectations of our role in creating positive culture, and the expectations of all those around us, are huge, and often daunting.
During our Forum we will share solutions, support and learn from each other, and connect with fellow founders to enable ongoing support, peer-mentoring, friendship and networks.
We’ll follow our usual format, with speakers, panel and audience discussions, small group discussions and lots of networking time.
We'll announce our speakers closer to the date.
Places are limited, so that we can enjoy the wonderful venue, and easily interact with fellow founders. Book soon to be sure of a place. Tickets are £40 to cover our costs.
This event is for social impact founders, current and past.
