In this Purposely Short, we revisit a four-minute segment from our full conversation with Liz Gibbs on how mission-driven organisations can fund and invest in innovation to grow their social impact.
Liz points to examples like Eli Care to show what it takes for charities, social enterprises and philanthropic investors to move beyond one-off grants and take an investment-minded approach that still stays true to mission. She talks through how capital can be structured and partnered, so it supports good causes now while helping build sustainable, impact-led enterprises for the future.
This one is useful for charity leaders, impact investors and funders working out where philanthropy, investment and innovation meet.
Key themes
• Why more funders are looking to invest in innovation and commercial models, not just rely on one-off grants
• What Eli Care shows about blending commercial discipline with social mission
• The capital and partnerships needed to back early-stage, impact-focused ventures
• What boards and leadership teams should weigh up on risk, return and mission
• How funding strategy can build long-term, community-level impact, not just short-term outputs
