Our guiding principles

Impact defines success

We believe the future belongs to organisations that actively choose to create positive impact — for society, the planet, and their bottom line.

The systems game

Big problems require big solutions, co-designed and steered by thought leaders, innovators, business builders, policy-makers, enablers and funders alike.

Patient by intent

We acknowledge that change requires time and patience. We stay true to our mission and iterate on our actions when necessary to achieve our long-term impact goals.

Entrepreneurs at heart

Every human is born an entrepreneur. We trust in the entrepreneurial potential of those we work with to build meaningful innovations.

Our Case Studies

Frequenty asked questions

What is social innovation?

Social innovation is about developing solutions - whether products, services, or processes - that address systemic social and environmental challenges.

It’s grounded in the understanding that meaningful change is a systems effort. Creating impact at scale requires a shared mission and the involvement of diverse actors across sectors. This includes thought leaders such as academics and sector experts; business builders like social enterprises and corporate intrapreneurs; policymakers in the public sector; enablers within the social sector; and funders ranging from philanthropic organisations to impact investors.

Do you work with specific industries or specific geographies?

We work with all types of sectors, with a particular focus on access to health, WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene), and mobility. We coordinate across geographies, leveraging our network of local partners in Europe and the global south.
