About the Workshop

The workshop will be a practical, insight-filled session for social enterprises and purpose-driven businesses with their eye on impact investment. Jessica Roth, Director and Founder of Social Impact Hub is an expert in impact investment advisory, education, collaboration and capital mobilisation and will facilitate the session.

You will be among the very first enterprises to use the Social Impact Hub’s Impact Investment Readiness Diagnostic Tool, developed with the support of the English Family Foundation. This tool will assess your organisation’s impact investment readiness in ten different areas and identify what you need to work on in order to successfully secure investment.

You will also have the opportunity to apply EY's 7 Drivers of Growth tool to your business. The tool helps you assess your capability to deliver on your growth plans and helps you identify ways to scale and grow your business. Express your interest to work through the tool one-on-one with an EY consultant as part of the workshop! You can do this by selecting the Social Entrepreneur ticket and ticking 'Yes' to this 1-1 opportunity in the following questions (note there are limited spots for 1 on 1 consulting but everyone will have the opportunity to learn about EY’s 7 Drivers of Growth framework).

Grab your ticket to this value-packed workshop and lunch today! There will be plenty of opportunities to network, too!
