Creative tools to invest in community.
Grants.
Grants deepen relationships with community and provide real opportunities for impact. However, they can be process-heavy and require attention to detail to get right. With our simple and robust approach, we can set up and manage a nimble grant program while you focus on core business.
Impact Jams.
Impact Jams bring together people from wildly different backgrounds to solve entrenched problems in unexpected ways. Primarily aimed at place-based development, the concept can be adapted for different situations where conventional approaches are no longer effective.
Innovation Funds.
Innovation funds seek to flush out the best ideas and innovations aimed at solving social and environmental problems. They can be aimed at generating novel ideas, prototyping or testing new ideas, scaling innovations or replicating successful models in local conditions.
Incubators and Accelerators.
Accelerators are usually pitched at start-ups or social enterprises working in specific domains. They combine seed funding with targeted business support, networking opportunities and mentoring. They are often aimed at developing a pipeline of shovel-ready deals for investors.
Challenge Prizes.
Challenge prizes revolve around financial and other rewards to incentivise groups and individuals to solve targeted problems or come up with new ideas. They are a great way to get a diverse range of experts together to tackle issues in original ways.
Award Programs.
A tailored award in a bespoke category can provide recognition, reward and profile to finalists and recipients. But they can also help make your business known for being socially responsible. Become a household name by backing a meaningful award. Think ‘Booker Prize’ and ‘Eureka Prize’.
