The Power of Shared Purpose: How To Find Your Unique Why
Speaker: Laura Hughes-Onslow, Mayor’s Fund for London
Companies are increasingly focusing on their ESG commitments and building social purpose into the heart of their strategies.

How do you stand out to a potential corporate partner, and demonstrate your unique why? This session will showcase how powerful your unique why can be with a real-life example increasing corporate pledges from £2m to £10m. We will talk through some steps you can take to find your own unique why and apply it throughout your pitching and partnership-building process.
