Overview
This grant will be focused on creating and introducing new feedback tools and research at the Social Finance Programme at Said Business School at the University of Oxford in fall 2019. These tools and research will also become part of the curriculum for the Impact Investing and Social Finance Programmes moving forward. (These are executive education programs with global participants). As part of this introduction, they will hold an Oxford-wide convening focused on the importance of community feedback in social finance for the roughly 500+ C-level executives who have attended the Social Finance and Impact Investing Programmes, as well as the several thousand executives who are part of the broader University network.
