Why the world needs companies to profitably tackle big challenges
The UK is faced with multiple social and environmental challenges, from the cost of living crisis to climate change. Mainstream businesses have a vital role to play in helping tackle them.
Most efforts to find solutions are focused on the role of government and charities. While there is much that the government and charities can do, they are limited by debt and scale respectively. UK government debt has topped 100% of GDP, and charity turnover is £94 billion — 1.8% of business turnover.
Business is a significant untapped resource that we desperately need to unlock as we face the great challenges of our age. ReGenerate looks specifically for purpose-driven opportunities for business to play its part in tackling a range of issues, where the solution is delivered through a profitable model rather than purely philanthropy.
About our projects
We leave no stone unturned in our efforts to take on and solve these challenges. We conduct evidence-based research to understand the root causes of the issue and create reforms that will have a major impact in helping address them.
But we do not stop there. There is little value in identifying what is needed without inspiring change. Instead, we operate as a supernode, bringing people together around the reform ideas and driving change.
Our reforms are focused on three key players that significantly affect business behaviour: the government, investors and business networks / influential businesses. This is because research shows they have the biggest impact on businesses.
