SUMMARY:Next Economy Conversations with Bill Young
DESCRIPTION:As we look to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, we know now more than ever that we cannot go back to the way things were. From the climate crisis to amplified social inequalities, the challenges of our time require us to build the Next Economy – one that is sustainable, equitable, and prosperous for all.\nNext Economy Conversations, our monthly event series, is your chance to hear from incredible leaders helping to build this Next Economy. Learn about their work as well as their personal journeys, successes, hard lessons, and visions for the future.\nJoin us for these informal, interactive, and intimate conversations over your morning coffee.\nOn Thursday May 21, Tonya Surman, CEO of the Centre for Social Innovation, will sit down (virtually, of course!) with Bill Young, President of Social Capital Partners.\nAbout this month’s guest, Bill Young…\nBill Young is the founder of Social Capital Partners (SCP), an innovative non-profit, social finance company started in 2001. Throughout its history SCP has facilitated thousands of jobs for people who face employment barriers through social enterprise and the private sector by linking community hiring to attractive financing. Its most recent program, the Employee Ownership Capital initiative, is focused on using institutional funds to increase employee ownership.\nBefore founding SCP, Bill worked in the private sector, primarily as CEO of Hamilton Computers – later sold to GE Capital – and Optel Communications Corp. He began his career as a Chartered Accountant and holds an Honours BA from the University of Toronto and an MBA from Harvard. He sits on numerous boards and advisory boards involved in social finance and social innovation and is a Member of the Order of Canada.\nAbout our host, Tonya Surman… \nTonya Surman is fuelled by her belief in the power of collaboration and belonging. She knows that putting the right people in a room is only the first step in creating real change. You also need to build a culture where everyone knows they have value and a voice to radically redesign our futures. She did this with the Centre for Social Innovation, which re-invented the workplace by collecting social purpose organizations under one roof. And it’s what she is doing with CSI’s affiliate charity the Social Innovation Instituteand Social Innovation Canada, unlocking the social innovation community to get at the root causes of problems. She knows building relationships between people is the foundation for a better world. It’s also a heck of a lot of fun!\nPlease note that we’ll use Zoom to connect. Details will be sent to confirmed registrants via email before the event.\n
