A new kind of event designed to pilot “real-time problem solving” for charities by business leaders.

Business leaders will give short presentations and then participants, including charity staff, will then take part in intensive problem-solving sessions.

The speakers are:

Elisabetta Osta, MD Barclays & Visiting Fellow at Cambridge
Tristan Lovering, MBE, Former Head of Intelligence at Royal Navy
Sarah Rogerson, Senior Manager at Cambridge Assessment English, University of Cambridge
Ritchie Mehta, CEO Learn Et Al
Tom Lawrie & Florian Pouchet, Consultants, Wavestone

The problem-solving session topics were all suggested by charity leaders. They are:

How to benefit from the corporate sector & partnership with academia
Using data & insights more effectively for better fundraising & operations
Psychological resilience – helping leaders make better decisions during testing times (hear stories of how soldiers have to respond and make decisions
How can charities embrace frugal innovation and succeed
What does GDPR mean for charities
During these intensive sessions, the business leaders will attempt “to solve some of the big challenges real time in small groups and provide bespoke support post the event”.

The event concludes with a networking session and drinks. If you wish to attend the event contact email is below.  Please include any dietary preferences.
