El día de Nochebuena conocimos que la tecnológica de energía verde Holaluz adquiría la compañía de energía renovable Bulb Energy España. La operación permite a Holaluz conectar a 23.000 clientes nuevos a su energía verde y acelerar el propósito de conseguir un planeta que se mueva 100% gracias a la energía verde.
In Engeland is de wankelende energieleverancier Bulb Energy genationaliseerd. Het bedrijf verkocht energie aan zo'n 1,7 miljoen klanten. 'Het probleem was dat het teveel kostte om de energie nog op de vrije markt in te kopen, dus dit is eigenlijk een financieringsprobleem', aldus BNR-commentator en macro-econoom Kees de Kort.

Impact Leaders - Impact Investment and Performance with Purpose
Rodney Schwartz is a leader in impact investing and the founder & CEO of ClearlySo, Europe's leading impact investment bank. He founded the company 10 years ago, the same week in which one of his former employers - Lehman Brothers - collapsed, and it has now helped over 100 companies obtain access to more than £200m in funding. In this episode, he shares his wisdom and experience of decades as an investment banker and pioneer in impact investing. He also highlights some of the challenges that we are still facing to really push the agenda and access to capital, as financial institutions have been more of an obstacle in how capital moves from people with money to people who need money to generate impact.

Hayden Wood is the CEO and co-founder of Bulb Energy, an award-winning renewable energy startup, based in London. Hayden has a background in management consulting and together with his friend Amit, spotted an unmet need in the UK's energy market. They created Bulb in 2015 and have enjoyed the challenge of building a socially driven enterprise whilst delivering low prices and next level customer service. We had a great discussion with Hayden on a number of topics, including his personal journey to becoming a co-founder of a successful renewable energy startup; the state of the energy market in the UK, how renewables are challenging the status quo, what the secret sauce is behind Bulb's impressive growth and his advice on getting a next-gen startup off the ground. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Find the show notes here ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ *** SOCIALIZE WITH US *** Website Instagram Facebook Twitter YouTube
