"Capital alone will not address poverty, climate and social justice."

Amit Bhatia, CEO of the Global Steering Group for Impact Investment and the British Council’s Dr Mairi Mackay, were both keynote speakers at Good Deals and Beyond Good Business, the UK’s leading social enterprise conference, which took place in London, in March 2018. Amit and Mairi took time out from the event to speak to Pioneers Post’s Julie Pybus about the power of private capital to tackle social issues, the role of creativity in building a purposeful economy and why millennials might be a big sign of hope for the social impact movement...We have released the podcast this week to coincide with the G20’s Development Working Group, where Mairi and Amit are meeting again. They’ll be discussing how to put social impact investment on the global agenda as a key approach to help countries transition to impact economies.For more podcasts, videos and articles on global social enterprise, head to the Global Perspectives collection produced in partnership with the British Council, on www.pioneerspost.comP.S.
