Our new report, Five Bridges to 2045, launched at UNGA, shares five ways business, government and civil society can collaborate for impact. Bridge 5 – Building Entrepreneurial Ecosystems: A key case study spotlights the Standard Chartered Foundation’s Revolving Loan Fund in sub-Saharan Africa, where: 85% of jobs are informal, including 80% in Kenya. Women make up 26% of entrepreneurs but face a $42bn funding gap and receive only 7% of VC finance. This fund helps unlock capital, boost financial literacy and support women and youth to grow businesses, advancing decent work, gender equality and poverty reduction. 📘 Read the report and case study: https://lnkd.in/dSa-6MXp #FiveBridgesTo2045 #BusinessFightsPoverty #UNGA2025 #FutureOfBusiness #InclusiveInnovation #SustainableGrowth #SocialImpact

During UNGA, we launched our new report, Five Bridges to 2045, hosted at Barclays. The report shares five pathways for how business, government and civil society can collaborate for a fairer, more resilient future. BRIDGE 5 – Partnering to build entrepreneurial ecosystems 👉 A key case study in this section comes from Barclays and Unreasonable Group. Together, they created Unreasonable Impact to solve a critical challenge: How do we rapidly scale purpose-driven ventures that create jobs and societal impact? Because while the world is full of breakthrough ideas, it often lacks the systems to help them grow. This case study shows the power of partnerships to unlock innovation and build sustainable economies. Hear about Naked Energy Ltd, Re:Dish Co., and Lithium Urban Technologies. 📘 Download the report and case study here: https://lnkd.in/dSa-6MXp #FiveBridgesTo2045 #BusinessFightsPoverty #UNGA2025 #FutureOfBusiness #InclusiveInnovation #SustainableGrowth #SocialImpact Frances Cabrera Mark Thain Daniel Epstein John Kenny
