Manchester | Managing the money ethically..

12th September 2024 10.30 – 12.30, Managing the Money Ethically..

This is an intimate and invite only Catalyst Conversation.

If you are a tier three or above BBN Member and fancy coming down, or you would just simply love to get involved, please get in contact with our Community Manager James at james@thebetterbusiness.network and we’ll see what we can do!

What’s the session about?

The session will discuss a number of things that are crucially important when assessing the positive impact your company can have.

We will be discussing topics related to all the various forms of ethical money management and finance across its many facets, such as:

• Is how businesses handle their money actually the most critically important part of building a better world?
• Where should purpose driven businesses put their money?
• How can you find investment without ‘selling your soul to the devil’
• Does it matter if a business has a net zero policy if they don’t pay a liveable wage or avoid paying taxes?

What are catalyst conversations? 

Similar to a roundtable, catalyst conversations split attendees into groups of 6 people to discuss the topic, the challenges businesses face when trying to build a better world, and the opportunities to have a greater positive impact. This provides a peer learning opportunity as well as final next steps action points from all attendees.

During the session, we take notes and use these to write up insights that are shared amongst our Members and the wider business community, and will ultimately be pulled into an Industry Report and published.

The idea is to leverage the experience and expertise of those in the room and pass on actionable advice that can help others make a greater positive impact, hopefully causing those ripples of change!

What’s the schedule?

We’re running this session for 2 hours, between 10.30 and 12.30 (with a coffee break in the middle!). This catalyst conversation is intentionally scheduled on the same day as our Better Business Breakfast Networking session, so attendees can come in and get some coffee, fruit and pastries and make some valuable connections with other like-minded businesses.
