Ventures that make real change.
Our team of experienced advisors support social entrepreneurs who want to build and grow their social businesses. We work with social impact ventures across all sectors, all over the UK, working up new ideas, scaling existing ones and helping people to access fresh investment. We take the time to fully understand what each venture has to offer, the real change it can make and the way it works as a commercial model. This allows us to help our clients find the sweet spot between great financial footings and great social impact.
So, what is a social business?
Our acid test is simple: If the business in question grows, will the world around it grow to become a better place for all involved*? If the answer is yes, then you’ve got yourself a social business.
Many people think that businesses that do good can’t make a profit - well we want to break that myth. Some social businesses make profits for shareholders (but do it in an ethical way) and others reinvest their profits directly into social purpose. In the UK this latter group, known as social enterprises only employ 5% of the country's workforce and represent 3% of its GDP. We're here to raise that.
