Dean Spaccavento is on the show today. And if there is someone who embodies the mind, body and spirit of the enormity we as attempted change makers more than Dean does, then I haven't met them. In a week where we've seen nuclear energy and the Liberal party totally poleaxed by the electorate - and what a surprise that is - the race to decarbonise the Australian and global energy systems is absolutely on at the moment. For more than 15 years Dean has been on the vanguard of what a new energy system in this country could and needs to be. The distraction and denial that has permeated the energy transition to deliver zero emissions and support justice and equity for as many people as possible is an immense undertaking, and certainly not an undertaking I wish to sound dismissive or cynical about. Re-engineering and re-wiring how we all live and work on a daily basis is a staggering effort, and add into that vested interests who have demonstrated no interest in being part of this transition, the challenges of land access, problems of bad operators and poor practice, plus the necessary changes in our own practices regarding energy plus finding alignment on value propositions for new energy models is all incredibly complex.Dean has seen it all though, and as the CEO and Co-Founder of Reposit Power, his life's work since 2008 has been to been to play a central role in elegantly threading a needle that too often has seemed to have no eye. Reposit Power have created a customer proposition that is still unmatched in the market, where alignment between a customer who's homes acts as renewable energy generator exists with Reposit's technology and energy market service capabilities, then their ability to be able to work with a solar install sector that one third of the time doesn't deliver what they're paid to do, plus navigating complex regulatory conditions all within the largest machine in the world - the National Electricity Market, is extraordinary. And he does it all without being a far right sympathiser, hasn't sought prosecution for the head of an infectious disease department nor publicly slandered people seeking to help and rescue trapped kids in a cave in Thailand.Today's chat is a lesson and primer on the Australian electricity system and the transition we want and need it to go through. It's full of stories from Dean's experience - the ups and downs, the illogical and the logical. We chat about the increasingly bifurcated energy system we now have in place, the array of problems this causes, obfuscation by vested interests, the problems of accelerating technology evolution and the downside for the less well off and the crucial, central role of trust and truth in this grand endeavour to change the underlying functioning of our economy and society.Dean Spaccavento is a role model for me in how to go about making change - with perseverance, integrity and maybe most importantly, a sense of humour.

Jocelyn King is on the show today. Joc is a Bundjalung woman who over the course of her life and career has worked to develop her own understanding of and connection to traditional knowledge systems. She's worked in and around finance for more than a decade, where today she is the Chair of First Australians Capital. At the same time, she's building a farm in NSW's Hunter Valley that reprises First Nations knowledge of caring for and re-awakening Country while adapting regenerative agricultural practices too. Jocelyn walks the talk as she seeks to advocate for First Nations justice, truth telling and self-determination, while also appreciating the limitations of working and interacting with capitalist neoliberal systems that do their best to erode equity, habitats and power dynamics.I was very humbled and very honoured to spend this time with Jocelyn. The sharing she offered and wisdom imparted on me - a non-Indigenous ancestor of colonisers - was remarkable to experience. My efforts as a non-Indigenous man to act in allyship with First Nations people feels too limited for my liking, which I'm ashamed to say, but feels true. My efforts to support, listen and prompt questioning feels like an area I want to evolve and advance this year, which I'm hopeful to do through our upcoming project Eating Country to Save Country. As a white man I was genuinely enthralled and privileged to have this time with Jocelyn.In this chat we cover a lot of ground - from reparations for past harms financiers have facilitated including the origins of banking in Australia to flipping mindsets and stories from extractive to responsibility oriented to the role of listening in truth telling. It felt like we barely scratched the surface but leaves me looking forward to speaking with Jocelyn again in the future.Efforts to make good for the harms perpetrated on First Nations people in this country for over two centuries has a very long way to go. The struggle is sobering but the resolve of Australia's First Nations people is a remarkable story of perseverance, unity and love, and Jocelyn does a beautiful job of offering her own experience, strength and hope here.The April Finding Nature journal hits inboxes this Saturday morning and it's on the topic of unity. Ina ll we heard from Jocelyn today and with that theme in mind, this quote from Tony Evans struck me in our combined efforts to seek voice, treaty and truth in this country: “Unity is oneness of purpose, not sameness of persons.”Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's show is with James Bradley - renowned Australian author who is returning to the show a year after releasing what was one of my favourite books of 2024 - Deep Water, Life in the Ocean. James' books have been nominated and awarded prizes all over the country, and in 2021 he was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for "service to literature as a writer'. He's written for the Guardian, The Monthly, The Saturday Paper and The Conversation. His work is incisive and always brilliantly written, and at a time when it's difficult to keep up or fully appreciate what is happening in our world, I always enjoy seeing James' work appear whether in book form, his essays or newspaper contributions.James is on the show today to talk about his upcoming book - Landfall. A return to more familiar territory for him of fiction after his first non fiction effort in Deep Water, this is anything but a normal read. Blending the science of climate change in a radically altered Sydney landscape in a medium term timescale, Landfall is a crime story where impending disaster, omnipresent surveillance technology, social dysfunction and forced migration are all background characters. This is a story of kindness, heartbreak, fear and hope. I loved reading it and I'm looking forward to getting to the launch of Landfall in Sydney on April 29 - search for James Bradley Landfall and Gleebooks to get your ticket too.James is a brilliant story teller. Landfall is another contribution on how we can think about time and futures, story and the stories we tell ourselves about the future, the practice of writing, writing as a tool and what all of this means for any and all of us who think in or use words as a medium of attempting change.Speaking to James and how he weaved kindness into Landfall, and with April's substack being on the theme of unity, this quote from Marielle Heller is very apt - “With all of the bad things that are happening in the world right now, I think we need a message of togetherness and true unity. I believe that starts with personal reflection and then we can find kindness toward each other.”Til next time, thanks for listeningEvents are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Hello out there, this is the Finding Nature podcast and my name is Nathan Robertson-Ball. I started this show with the intent of creating the types of conversations that I knew I needed but also thought people that work in the broad tent of sustainability wanted to hear too - combining discussions on the issues and problems our civilisation and planet face with the optimism of what has and could be done but also getting into the mindsets and philosophies of the people who have been on the frontlines of attempting and succeeding in this work. I wanted to have conversations that blend cognitive stimulation with emotional nourishment and spiritual enlightenment with the intent of helping me and hopefully you grow and evolve as a person and support our shared aspirations to contribute to a safer, more just and equitable future.Today's guest is Michael Bones, and when I invited him onto the show I thought maybe we'd have a chance of hitting those dimensions and the overlap between them, and it didn't disappoint. I absolutely loved speaking with Michael, as I have every time I have over the last couple years when we've connected over our shared love/hate of trying to work out how financial services entities and government can be far more proactive and take actually meaningful action on the dark shadow a changed and changing climate means for everything everywhere. Under Michael's cognition is an awakened spirit and loving human. We get through much on the climate risk and adaptation side, policy and the risks of capital flight in addition to the physical degradation of a stable climate. We chat about Michael's own grief and challenges when confronted with the breadth and depth of a changed climate, his own journey to reclaiming his own sanity and health, and he also manages to get a lot of me and my own despair and life meltdowns.April is about unity at the finding nature substack this month. Nick Lowles founded Hope not Hate in 2004 as an anti racist and anti fascist movement and this quote from him resonates after learning from Michael “It is in unity that we find strength; in unity we find hope, and in unity we can stand firm as the darkness approaches. Land us stand together - and stand firm - against many faces of hate”I absolutely adored this conversation. Michael is a special person, a gift to all of us as we navigate our own journeys. I hope you enjoy it and find your own story in parts of his. Til next time, thanks for listening. Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

I'm very pleased to bringing you a chat with Victoria Whitaker. I was really excited to chat with Vic - she's another of the originals of the Sydney and Australian sustainability crew like Lee Stewart and Nicolette Boele I've had the chance to chat with on this show. I did some work with Vic the best part of a decade ago when she was at The Ethics Centre, and it was immediately evident how thoughtful, well regarded and insightful she was.Vic has held a number of different roles in various organisations over time. From being involved in the earlier days of the Cambridge Institute for Sustainable Leadership and running Al Gore's Climate Project in the UK, to joining Choice, working on the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme in the initial Kevin Rudd prime ministerial years, she brought the Global Reporting Initiative and UN Global Compact to Australia, spent time at the Ethics Centre and was recently a partner at Deloitte doing all sorts of sustainability, human rights and social licence work.Vic represents the required breadth of knowledge, skills and capabilities of the sustainability professional. under that though is a person driven to make a difference. She has Always been looking to find a way to alter the trajectory of a problem or an organisation's contribution to it. It was a pleasure having Vic on the show to chat about the history of this work, her own stories and then the fundamental role of ethics, values and principles in decision making that is often the missing factor in a corporate sustainability machine that is now fixated on mandatory disclosures, mandatory ESG assessment and mandatory e-learnings. Change doesn't happen when you try to force it on people, and as we hear from Vic here, the reprisal and spreading of the original ontology of sustainability needs work, stretching back to what Rachel Carson's seminal Silent Spring from 1962 helped reveal.Chatting to Vic was illuminating. I haven't been able to stop thinking about the pursuit of more sustainable futures without different ways by which decisions are made which value and prioritise ethics, values and principles. The April newsletter is on the theme of unity, and in crisis it's easy to feel isolated and alone. Together though, we are far stronger, our unity is where our power lies. With Vic in mind, and the theme of unity, here's this quote from Thomas Paine which to me represents the situation of the sustainability professional “It is not in numbers but in our unity that our great strength lies.”Til next time, thanks for listening. Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Brian Schmidt is absolutely one of these extraordinary people - a normal person who's lived an entirely abnormal life. Besides being awarded a Nobel Prize, Brian was also the Vice Chancellor of the Australian National University for eight years, including during the Covid pandemic. He's a physicist, astrologist and astrophysicist by training, receiving his undergrad from the University of Arizona then his PhD from Harvard. For more than 30 years he's called Australia home, making the move here and becoming one of the most significant figures in the history of humanity's understanding of the universe and our extremely small place in it.This was a brilliant conversation - covering everything from Brian's research to his time at ANU, his views on Australia's education system, the role of universities and how we can all approach learning, education and lifelong development. As well, we chat about how Brian thinks about hard problems, his own calculus in making a difference today on some of the world's greatest challenges from food shortages to nuclear proliferation.This was a real honour. Brian is a global leader in his field - one of the greatest that's ever lived - so to spend some time with him was remarkable, and I hope you take from this how within reach the extraordinary is. The newsletter is out this week on the theme of choice. With Brian on the show to explore and understand cosmology, astronomy and physics, the great Carl Sagan is appropriate this week - “We are the legacy of 15 billion years of cosmic evolution. We can enhance life and come to know the universe that made us. Or we can squander our 15 billion year heritage in meaningless self destruction.”Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest is someone I've wanted to bring on the show for a little while - Kaylene Langford. The reason why I wanted to have Kaylene on is because her job is all about helping people take their hare brained schemes or half concocted ideas and turn them into businesses. This matters to me - both because I've done it and experienced a remarkable transformation in how I understand and can exercise my agency in attempting to make a difference, but because I know just about everybody listening today does harbour ideas and visions of starting their own thing.Part of what I set about undertaking this year was finding voices that are adjacent to or completely outside the world of sustainability and to bring their knowledge and wisdom into ours. People who are creative, who are creating. At a time of planetary crisis and societal unrest, we need something new. More corporate disclosures won't reverse greenhouse gas emissions. More parliamentary inquiries won't deliver more trust in democratic institutions. New action is needed for new outcomes, and Kaylene is a master at helping you, me and anybody else get after that problem addressing idea you've got tucked away from sight. I wanted to speak with and learn from Kaylene - the role of story telling, the necessity of starting and the paralysis of fear.Kaylene is a business starter and owner of Start Up Creative, she's an author, a coach, a speaker. She writes, she hosts courses and workshops, she shares her lessons through podcast. Most of all though she's the type of unique and valuable voice I think those in the Finding Nature community need to hear, and it's such a joy to bring this conversation to you today.Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest is a larger than life personification of that change - Kal Glanznig. Kal is a force - animated, enthusiastic, humble, curious and as a youth climate leader he's entirely committed to doing all he can to avert a climate catastrophe.Kal's successes to date are plenty.- from activating a school solar installation to launching a community anti-plastic platform, to scaling and changing a retail business to becoming one of the youngest local government councillors in this state to now driving a national youth eco anxiety mental health initiative. His list of achievements is extraordinary for a 24 year old though it's immediately apparent when you meet and speak with Kal how he's managed to get so much done already.Kal came into my orbit at the AdaptNSW conference last year where he made a pointed remark from the stage that he couldn't see any younger people in the audience - something that struck me then and we chat about today. I also learnt in preparing to chat with Kal that two thirds of young Australians experience eco anxiety and fear of the future of the planet. Two thirds - that is an incredible and terrifying number. I wanted to chat to Kal as I know my life is not as full of folks in their 20s these days, and this generation is both who are often driving so much action globally, but are also entirely dependent on all of us getting our act together and being effective in what we do whether its addressing climate change, plastic pollution, avoiding the impending threat of deep sea mining or being an advocate for the ocean.I hope you're as moved, inspired and in awe of him listening as I was speaking with him. Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest though is someone I was very excited to spend some time with - Digby Hall. Digby is a renowned architect who for more than three decades has played a leading role in shaping and delivering versions of sustainability and resilient projects. More than that though, his thinking, influence and understanding of complex dynamic systems and being able to make sense and create practical actions that are necessary for adaptation is outstanding. To go with his registered architect label, He's also a Ted Speaker, advisor, PhD scholar and entrepreneur who has helped me appreciate that adaptation isn't just an abstract concept or something relevant only for the most at risk places and people around the world, but a notion that everything, everywhere will need to be evolved and changed to deal with a new climate reality. From the obvious like homes and coastal infrastructure, to food systems and how government procurement processes operate.Digby is a deep thinker and pragmatic operator, blending high quality research with his own extensive experience to now be one of Australia's - if not the world's - most astute purveyor of the necessity of adaptation.Alright Digby. As I think becomes immediately apparent in this conversation he has a legitimate understanding about the scope, scale and urgency of adaptation. Efforts to decarbonise haven't progressed as they've needed to and a result we all have an enormous amount to do in making the physical, cultural, social, political and economic changes required to avoid the very worst of the losses and damages that are now locked in from a changing climate.The March newsletter is going to be on the theme of choices. And don't we have some to make at this moment. To fight, to freeze or to fly. This conversation with Digby - and the choices regarding adaptation - reminded me of one of my favourite quotes from Jerzy Gregorek: hard choices, easy life.

Emma Bacon is the Executive Director of Sweltering Cities and she's on the show this week to talk about and share more on the terrifying reality of what she describes as the personal tragedies of a hotter everywhere world.My name is Nathan Robertson-Ball and welcome to the Finding Nature podcast. I started this show nearly a year ago and the broader endeavour that is Finding Nature as a response to my own disaffection and distress over the trajectory of so much. In that time we've had another record year of greenhouse gas emissions, heat records just about everywhere have been smashed again and the election of - and my favourite description so far - a useful idiot in the US has emboldened authoritarianism, emboldening dumb binary politicking and a massive retreat from organisations who a couple of years ago were all rushing to commit to play their part in the avoidance of planetary calamity. What halcyon days they seem like now.So Finding Nature is a response to that disaffection and distress. I have this show where each week I get to go longer form with the people on the frontlines of change making and impact creation, over on Substack I write about the Encroaching Apocalypse or a Glorious New View and also collect the views and contributions of many others in our community. Lastly - Finding Nature holds events that bring life and atmosphere to this whole thing. Like a refuge for the people who often feel like mutants in the environments they spend their time in. Finding Nature is easy to find on Substack, Humanitix, Instagram and LinkedIn, and then we're on all the podcast platforms including the one you're listening to this episode on now.OK so Emma Bacon, Sweltering Cities and heat. This topic legitimately terrifies me. As a civilisation dependent on a goldilocks climate zone for our stable existence, what happens as we enter a new climate era - defined primarily by not only more frequent and intense disasters - but by the ratcheting up of heat everywhere. From average temperatures and the ways by which that affects the delicate cycles of life in specific locations, to blasting furnace heat waves that obliterate heat records and cause widespread suffering, loss, death and damage. So much of the climate crisis is esoteric or abstract for the regular person - but everyone knows heat. It's inescapable, and it's arrived and arriving. Emma outlines plenty in this chat - the despair over how decisions makers at all levels can't hide behind plausible deniability as a valid reason for inaction, how vested interests lock in structural inequality and worsen conditions through inappropriate building standards and the ways by which everyone everywhere is at risk of heat.We cover a lot of ground in this chat, and I hope you come away not only more informed but ready to action.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest is a really fun one - Bel Chellingworth - none other than the Garbologist - joins to chat all things waste, packaging, circularity, business models, structural change and individual agency.Bel's career to date spans government, corporate and is now Director and Principal Consultant of BC Consulting, continuing to help business and community reduce waste and make circular economy real. Previously she's led the circular economy portfolio for the London School of Economics, The GPT Group, Australia Post, and ALDI Stores AU - always advocating for prevention, reuse and repair to be the first responders to waste issues.Waste is a topic that daunts me. My first few years out of uni were working in and around waste - from compliance driven packaging reporting to staff education on bins to municipal scale biowaste renewable energy projects. It left me pretty scarred, and to be honest it's a problem I am familiar with but not overly involved with or participating in. When I heard the story of Bel and the remarkable feat she has achieved in reducing her own personal waste footprint to essentially zero I was spurred to go and listen to her and the stats and trajectory of basically every product and their waste was overwhelming. I knew I had to get over my own anxieties and avoidance and get Bel on the show.And she doesn't disappoint. I took an absolute tonne from this chat - from the invisible forces of industry power to convoluted regulatory and legislative frameworks that don't serve environmental outcomes, to the ways new types of business are embedding actual circularity into their business models from the get-go as opposed to trying to retrofit existing broken systems and paradigms, and then her own journey and experiences in shifting her own practices.She also appears regularly in the Australian media as an expert 'Garbologist' and has a residency on ABC Radio Nightlife, the program aptly named 'Waste Not, Want Not' fortnightly broadcasting all around the country, demystifying circularity, and making actions for waste prevention clear and accessible for everyone. Bel is an example of personal change and the power of attraction over promotion. How by being the example as a lighthouse she helps inspire and allow others to realise what their potential is and how they can make a valuable contribution to environmental protection and sustainability. I had such a blast chatting to Bel, and she's helped reform me on my own waste system anxieties and avoidance. Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest is Zack Schofield - one of the lead organisers and who Murdoch media describe as a prominent member of the climate action and activist group Rising Tide. Now I know protest and civil disobedience isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I suspect just about everybody listening to this show has joined one at some point - whether the school strike for climate, one seeking justice regarding Indigenous deaths in custody, respect for women and an end to gender based violence, or maybe it was the Rising Tide prostevial in Newcastle in November last year or in 2023, they certainly have a role to play. From just being able to capture the energy and zeal of a group through to being a deliberate effort to raise anger and demand a response. Personally I think they are important, and as Zack points out in this chat so much social and political change over time has been born out of and the result of acts of protest, boycott and strikes. At the same time though, I appreciate they are not everyone's cup of tea.During a planetary crisis, when fossil fuel projects continue to be approved for expansion here and abroad - which is against the science and I would have thought contradicts climate commitments and the actual decarbonisation of our economies and societies - I wanted to bring Zack's experiences and stories to you today and to share more about what drives him, what Rising Tide is about and how to make sense of and discern the aspirations and demands of such entities in the grand tapestry of meaningful and effective action.I was in a near constant state of awe speaking with Zach about his and the efforts of other activists out there. This is an emergency, and while there is a need and space for the work many do in corporates or start ups or academic research or policy development and implementation, increasingly I think there is a space for a movement of direct action to hamper and restrict the fundamental cause of the climate crisis - generating emissions.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Send me a messageToday's guest is a legend of Sydney's sustainability landscape - Lee Stewart. He's here today to chat about the release of his upcoming book titled How to Build Sustainability Into Your Business Strategy, but that becomes a proxy for him and I to chat about and discuss the progression and evolution of sustainability as a notion for organisation's of all shapes and sizes to grapple with for over 20 years. Where it came from, how it's changed and where it may be going.Lee is someone who has been a literal pioneer here in Australia and in New Zealand who's worked across large multinationals, dominant domestic corporations, in consulting and also as a sole practitioner - and now he can author to that impressive resume. Lee's book is an absolute must if you're curious about better understanding how to see the trees through the forest and step back from the constant demands of the daily doing and the hamster wheel of constant requests and requirements to report any and all versions of ESG and sustainability information.One thing I appreciated and valued speaking about with Lee was exploring how working in sustainability is deeply personal work. I know myself that ever since beginning to learn about the impacts humans were having on the environment as a kid, then my studies and later all the professional ups and downs that has entailed, this work I attempt is intensely personal. For many of us - once we have seen the world we are living in and heading towards, it's impossible to unsee that. I like to refer to people who are looking to change organisations as sustainability professionals as having some mutated gene that means they can both suffer the challenges of everyday bureaucracy and the disappointments of setbacks, but also hold the remarkable ability to don a proverbial cape and return over and over again, working tirelessly to make a difference, progressively altering the trajectory of wherever it is they work and continue to march along. Lee is someone who is absolutely of that make-up, and it was a pleasure to chat about this and much more with him.Thank you for listening today, I appreciate it and don't take your precious time for granted.

One last place you can sign up is at  findingnature.substack.com where each month I publish a series of contributions from other professionals working in the sustainability and impact fields on what motivates them, their philosophies and how that informs their daily lives.The theme for the next newsletter in August is mavericks, and I consider Lee to be just that. This quote from Alan Rickman appropriately captures the spirit of Lee's book and the ask he has of all of us as we seek to bring about a more beautiful, just and sustainable future - Maverick is a word which appeals to me more than misfit. Maverick is active, misfit is passive.Today's show is delivered with Altiorem. Use the code FindingNature10 to get your first month free on their gold and platinum plans.

Send me a messageJoe Steensma is today's guest and he comes all the way from St Louis, Missouri where he is a Professor or Practice at the Brown School which is part of Washington University. Joe has a diverse and fascinating background - a forest kid who came to admire and love birds, studied biology and chemistry and ever since has been applying his deep observational strengths and technical skills to address system challenges by using the lessons he has accumulated from the natural world. Joe is a Ted speaker and has started, run and sold dozens of businesses, and his applied research has seen him work everywhere from the US to Haiti, to Nigeria and here in Australia.While here in town I was fortunate to grab a bit of his time while he's been delivering a series of 'capitalism for good' and what what biology has taught me about business lectures at Macquarie University.This chat was not just so much fun, but revealing that the answers we seek are already all around us. The natural world - from the woodpecker to the powerful owl to the interactions and relationships within and between species - can be our teacher, if we let it. I came away realising not only is the disconnect from nature harming us individually and collectively, but what has replaced it - homogenised pictures and stories and ideas and practices of what a good and appropriate life look like - is narrowing our own ability to address problems effectively and create the world we all want to see.This conversation is both fun and informative. My first foreign national guest which feels like a thing, and I'm grateful for what Joe shared here and helping me to remember and re-ground back into the obvious conclusion that nature is our teacher, our answer, our hope. I hope you enjoy listening. Thank you for listening today, I appreciate it and don't take your precious time for granted.If you enjoyed this episode or any other, please offer a rating as the algorithms appreciate that type of interaction, share the show with friends or colleagues and let them know why you think they'd appreciate listening, and subscribe.As I mentioned earlier, the event schedule for the rest of this year is available - head to the Finding Nature LinkedIn page for more details on this, follow there and also on Humanitix.

The theme last month was meaning, while this month for July it is perseverance.Considering Joe's love of birds and this theme, there's no quote this week but the migration story of the arctic tern which epitomises perseverance. The arctic tern completes the longest annual migration of any species on earth - travelling each year from the arctic where they breed, south to Antartica, and all while weighing only around 100 grams and with a wingspan over just little over two feet.Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

In this episode of the Inspired Money Live Stream Podcast, we explore the transformative impact of philanthropy and social initiatives. Joined by guest panelists Katherina 'Kat' M. Rosqueta, Adam McCurdie, and Mariko Gordon, we uncover creative ways to make a meaningful difference in the world. Innovative Approaches to Philanthropy Philanthropy is not just about donating money. It's about making a lasting impact. This episode, "The Art of Giving Back: Creative Ways to Make a Difference," highlights diverse strategies and personal stories that redefine how we think about giving. Our esteemed guests share their insights and experiences, providing a comprehensive view of impactful philanthropy.

“If you say honesty is a core value, are you kidding me? Do you want people working in your organisation that are dishonest? That doesn't make sense!”   This is a special episode only available to our podcast subscribers, which we call The Mini Chief. These are short, sharp highlights from our fabulous CEO guests, where you get a 5 to 10 minute snapshot from their full episode. In this edition of the Mini Chief we feature a snippet from our Best of Series with Group CEO of Nuix, Jonathan Rubinsztein. His full episode is titled Bringing values to life, compressing time, and the 3 key principles of motivation. You can find the full audio and show notes here:

“Often the people you speak to are in the same industry and that creates an echo chamber. If you don't have communication with people outside your industry, you're going to be someone else's lunch or dinner in this crazy world of disruption.”   In this Best of Series episode of The Inner Chief podcast, we feature Group CEO of Nuix, Jonathan Rubinsztein, on bringing values to life, compressing time, and the 3 key principles of motivation.

What do concert tickets and philanthropy have in common? Generally, not much, but a couple of friends of The Life You Can Save are working very hard to change that. Tech entrepreneurs Joshua Ross and Adam McCurdie could have made a fortune building their ticketing platform start up, but a trip to war-torn Sri Lanka fueled their desires to do work that was truly meaningful. It took a few years to get all the pieces aligned, but in 2016, Humanitix launched with a mission to be "The home of tickets for good, not greed." And in less than a decade, they've transformed more than $10 million (Australian) dollars to healthcare, housing, education, and more — including a donation of $4M AUD to The Life You Can Save! In this episode, Charlie talks with co-founders Josh and Adam about the history of Humanitix, the good it's done so far, and their mission to do even more in the years to come. Find more about Humanitix and founders Josh and Adam at their website, humanitix.com/us. Musings About Ourselves and Other Strangers is the podcast for the non-profit organization The Life You Can Save and is hosted by co-founder Charlie Bresler.

”Our first few people who joined us, joined as full-time volunteers.”  Josh Ross, Humanitix Global disruption of the entrenched oligopoly of ticketing – and doing it as a “for purpose” business with no equity investors and volunteers as its first “employees.”  Humanitix did that.  Starting in Australia and becoming a dominant player there emboldened Humanitix to expand its services to the U.S. with a Colorado HQ, saving ticket buyers massive amounts in fees, and contributing millions to children's causes along the way. Their story is a fascinating one.

Of course, they'll pass on 10% to Pay the Rent.

New episodes coming soon!Australian start-up Humanitix re-invests 100 percent of the profits from event ticket fees into education projects for disadvantaged kids.The start-up had to transition its operations online when the pandemic hit, and has since expanded from its ticketing core into helping hard-hit event organisers run virtual events and - when borders reopen - safer in-person events.

Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Josh: My superpower is my friendship with Adam. So Adam's been my best mate pretty much since university days, and I would never have been able to do this without him.Humanitix co-founder and co-CEO Josh Ross says, “Humanitix is a ticketing platform for events. Think of it like an ethical alternative to an Eventbrite. We exist to solve social problems.”After recording this interview last month, we swapped out our ticketing host for SuperCrowd22 to use Humanitix. When you finish reading, watching or listening, I hope you’ll agree we made a good call.The Story of HumanitixJosh and his co-CEO Adam McCurdie built Humanitix from the ground up as a nonprofit. “We had this vision of how amazing would the world be if we had technology charities at scale that could use that force purely for good.”The nonprofit tech company is now the go-to ticketing platform in Australia and New Zealand. As a nonprofit, mission gets prioritized above profits. The profits the nonprofit tech company generates are committed to causes, Josh says:All the profits we make from our booking fees go into different education programs. Globally, we focus on young girls literacy programs. In America, we partner with Code.org, and we fund computer science and STEM programs for disadvantaged kids from low-income backgrounds.In addition to that use of funds, Josh sees Humanitix playing a pivotal role in making events more accessible. He notes that many people with significant disabilities have simply given up on attending events.Josh and Adam don’t own shares in Humanitix. No one does. As a nonprofit designed to serve the community, the entity in effect belongs to the community. While the founders could merge the business into another, they couldn’t benefit directly from such a transaction. They can make a living from Humanitix, but it will never make them wealthy.Josh explains that this is possible because before launching Humanitix, they spent six years in the corporate world “where we were doing well.” He adds that they come from “decent families” that have been supportive. “So, we don't need to make tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars personally,” Josh says. “So, as long as we can earn an honest living, this is a way more exciting thing to do with our time.”Josh adds that having pledged the profits to education programs, having traditional investors would create tension between them and the mission.To finance the launch of a business that would never distribute profits to shareholders seems daunting. “We found philanthropists that understand the power of what we're doing,” Josh says, noting that they appreciate the fact that in the long run, the nonprofit would become self-funding. “We've become a self-funding charity in Australia, New Zealand, so we didn't need [philanthropic] investors for long,” he says.The structure also makes the business and mission transparent. Josh explains:We can't give a tokenistic amount to our projects and then sell this to a big tech company in five years’ time. Because even if there was a sale, the money is not ours. And there's a constitution and a registered charity there where we'd go to prison if we started pocketing that money. It's got to go towards benevolent purposes. So, it gives comfort to us, to all the people that have helped us get here, but also our clients who believe in our mission, that we're not going to sell out.Given that the founders want to change the world rather than create wealth, the nonprofit structure has aligned the interests of everyone else involved.Josh’s lack of greed does not translate into a lack of vision. He sees big things ahead.If we can scale to a similar size as Eventbrite in America, which we've achieved, we think in Australia, New Zealand, we should be spitting out roughly $20 to $30 million a year to our education programs, and we’ll be a lot more advanced in improving accessibility at live events. We also save nonprofits money when they ticket through us because we let them use our platform at a sustainable price, which should keep coming down over time.It is exciting to imagine.To support this vital work, subscribe.Making Events AccessibleAccessibility is a big challenge for event organizers as well as for those with disabilities. “People don't realize a lot of events break even at best,” Josh says. The implication is that they don’t have big budgets for accomodating disabled participants.Josh adds, “Event organizers are under pressure. They don't necessarily have the time or knowledge to address this problem.”For example, a big challenge is facilitating the participation of people who are blind or visually impaired.“If you're blind, you probably use a screen reader device on your iPhone or whatever you use, and that reads to you what's on the website and helps you navigate it,” Josh says. “But it needs the website to play ball. It needs that behind images there are text descriptions of what that image is.”That’s just the beginning. Now imagine attending a conference at a major convention center in a large city. The facility may occupy a square mile in the city center and have a dozen different entrances. Josh says, “Now if the event organizers just told you the International Convention Center, great. You get in your Uber, and you tell them International Convention Center, and it's going to be a nightmare trying to find.”I know I’ve personally struggled to find a venue within a major event center without the challenge of a disability. I can only imagine how frustrating it would be with those added difficulties.“We've done a range of design workshops with people with varying disabilities, not just visual impairments, to understand what information you really need,” Josh says. “Knowing that a venue is wheelchair accessible is not necessarily enough,” Josh says. “If you speak to guest speakers who are in wheelchairs, most of them have experiences of ‘Yeah, I was told the venue was wheelchair accessible, but the stage wasn't.’”Josh shares the report of one such speaker, “So I'm sitting near the stage at a gala dinner. I get called up to give the keynote. I roll up to the front of the room, but I can't get on the stage. It's incredibly embarrassing. I'm in front of 500 people.”To help event organizers both make their events more accessible and help them make their participants who need accommodation aware of them, Humanitix offers eight modules that guide and assess accessibility. The responses are available to interested participants, who can then decide if they are able to attend comfortably.Humanitix also provides online training resources for event organizers so they can make events accessible.“We've only been around for six years. So, you know, we have not solved event accessibility. I'd never want to say that,” Josh says. “But we believe we're the market leaders in it. Even the [Australian] Government's Royal Commission on Disability Services, [when] they run events, they use us.”In all this success and impact, Josh sees his superpower playing a critical role. His superpower is friendship.How to Develop Friendship As a SuperpowerAfter asking this superpower question close to 500 times, I’m rarely surprised anymore. Josh’s answer about friendship surprised me. He acknowledged that it sounds “corny,” but the more he talked, the more I believed in its power.In fairness, it takes two people committed to a friendship to make it work. Josh says that starting Humanitix with Adam, his friend, was premised on a critical understanding. Adam might have joined us for this interview but was on his honeymoon with his new bride when we recorded it.“We were quite intentional about this when starting Humanitix because we actually said to each other, if this starts to eat away at our friendship, we'll both quit and stop it because our friendship matters more to us,” Josh says. That is a powerful commitment to the friendship.Over the years, there have been challenges that the pair of friends have overcome. “We shared a bedroom for three months when we were launching it,” Josh says.There is power in friendship. “When you've got someone you implicitly trust and love that has your back, it allows you to be a better version of yourself,” he says.The friendship also provides courage. “Mentally, I think, would have been too lonely to step out of a comfortable job, to take a risk like this,” Josh says.The simple observation that two heads are better than one also plays a part in their success. “His skill set is so complementary to mine,” he says of Adam.To make the friendship/partnership work, Josh and Adam established some rules. Josh reviewed two primary examples.No Resentment:The first thing we identified as something that could become a problem is resentment. Nothing in life is ever fair. He had a technology background. In the first few years, you’ve got two major problems. One is you've got to build a platform. The other is you've got to fund it. Now, at times, funding is more of the pressure. At other times the product is more the pressure. So, at times, he’s working until 2:00 in the morning. I had a finance background. At times, I'm working till 2:00 in the morning. But imagine you're sitting there not getting paid, you're not building equity in anything and you're working your ass off to try and make this work. And your co-founder, who has a different skill set, who isn't at that point—is still working hard but is having some quality of life. It would be pretty easy to be sitting there [feeling] resentment. '“I might not raise this, but [I’m feeling] resentment.” And that seed of resentment is the future downfall of your friendship.Raise Things Early.The other is to raise things early. So, you know, we all get on each other's nerves. It might be that you're not cleaning the coffee machine now. It sounds like a petty, small thing, but if you sit on that, then 99 percent of the time, in my experience, you blow up at them about something else after a while because it eats away at you.We've become more radically honest. And the rule is, if you raise something, Devin, from three months ago that I did that pissed you off, it's your problem because we're three months later now. If you raise it at the time, great. I have to thank you for raising it because I realize it's awkward and tough to raise things.Employing the rules works, Josh says. “We haven't had any serious fights. So, there are a couple of rules there that are really, really important.”By following the example of Josh and Adam and by employing their rules, you could make friendship a superpower that would allow you to do more good.SuperCrowd22Now that we’re using Humanitix for SuperCrowd22, I want to reiterate the invitation to attend.

In this episode we're joined by Joshua Ross , co-founder of the tech platform that is not only a go to for so many events in Australia, but also our ticketing platform for our SEVENTEENx events, Humanitix. Joshua's story is almost a tech cliché, as you'll hear, working in garages, and family lounge rooms to get started, but with one stark difference. They we're chasing a dream to change the world for millions of people, instead of like so many tech companies, chasing millions to change the lives of their own few. And what a story!! ... inspiring, funny and honest yet also direct and focused. The Humanitix story in their own words..... Humanitix started as a pact between us to escape the corporate world and do something meaningful. Like many social entrepreneurs, we looked for industries with inefficiencies that could be disrupted - for good! Then it came to us: tickets! Event ticketing has always been frustrating for hosts and guests alike and everyone hates booking fees. Fast forward to today and we've transformed over $1M from those annoying booking fees into helping disadvantaged kids around the world. Their website is HERE Connect with Joshua on linkedin HERE

What would it take for the goodies of the world to have a growing, exponential set of resources to finance how we make change? Josh Ross explores the idea of venture philanthropy and his not-for-profit ticketing organisation Humanitix. His company is disrupting event ticketing while also raising an exponential sum for charitable causes. Seed funding created a different kind of charity, where the business model raises more money than donations ever could. We talk about how he got started, what this means for philanthropy, and the role of technology in social change.

Imagine Eventbrite and Ticketmaster but with lower booking fees, highly competitive technology, an incredible customer service team, and not to mention, has an amazing cause. That's Humanitix, a ticketing registration platform that donates 100% of its profits to education programs around the world, and Humanitix CEO and co-founder Adam McCurdie is here today to talk to us about how Humanitix creates a meaningful impact and why Humanitix is one of the frontrunners, if not the frontrunner, in the events ticketing space.Something interesting about the Humanitix co-founders Adam and Josh is that they actually shared Josh's salary while bootstrapping and building Humanitix. Adam shares that this definitely required a lot of trust in each other and included setting some rules and boundaries in their friendship in order to make it work. Apart from having a great partner, he also told us how integral having a good team is. A testament to this is the fact that despite not being able to provide equity, they have zero churn with their engineering team, which is one reason they're able to constantly innovate and offer the best quality product in their field.So much was discussed in this episode, including how they raised initial funding from philanthropists and what they promised them in exchange for their money, how they convinced event hosts to make the switch to Humanitix, why people use their product not just because it's impactful but also because their technology is exceptional, and so much more. You won't want to miss this episode.Adam's key lessons and quotes from this episode were:“We've created the biggest no-brainer in events ticketing, and I think that's the main reason for our success and growth to date.” (7:51)“To get an event host to switch to Humanitix, particularly the bigger, more complex, sophisticated events that have more booking fees as a result, we have to come to the party with a very compelling piece of technology, not just a far more ethical model.” (9:22)“You can, as we've proven, run a beautiful company that creates phenomenally high-quality products, that produces a lot of profit, and as a result, achieves all this impact and funds the organization itself.” (18:34)“How important are shareholder values and wealth in the grand scheme of things? It's not the be all and end all of the capitalist engine. It's just one aspect, but it doesn't have to be everything.” (44:49)In this episode, we also talked about:How Humanitix works (5:27)Why they choose the 501(c)(3) nonprofit model for Humanitix (16:21)The most important lessons Adam learned on his journey to creating Humanitix (23:05)Battling COVID (38:30)Compassionate capitalism: How Adam sees the world in 10 years (43:51)Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/impacthustlers)

Episode Twelve is with Jenny Chung, Head of Distribution at Humanitix, an online ticketing platform using booking fees for good. What struck me about this conversation is how Humanitix was born because the founders were searching for an industry to shake up and technology that could maximise impact. I was also inspired by Jenny's passion for working in a purpose-driven organisation and how exciting growth is when it means more impact globally. In this conversation we discuss; Working for a purpose-driven organisation How individuals and businesses can use their powers for good A business model that has become a role model Humanitix's growth and practical impact Technologies role to play in scalable impact + more.

Joshua Ross, the co-founder of Humanitix, is this episode's guest.  Humanitix is an online event ticketing business that Josh and his childhood friend founded when they realized that there was an opportunity to disrupt the ticketing business. But their real innovation was their decision to donate 100% of the company's profits to effective charities, primarily those focused on child education in underdeveloped areas.  During the podcast, Josh and Brooke discuss Humanitix winning the Google Impact Challenge (for which it received $1 million), the trials and tribulations of being a startup company (particularly when the pandemic struck), how they decided to become philanthropists, and how they see Humanitix making an even bigger impact on the charitable world in the future.  (0:20).   Website:  https://www.humanitix.com/us

Back in 2015, co-founders and best mates Adam and Josh were looking for ways to give back to the world through business. They asked themselves: is there a way for us to break into an industry and set up our own social enterprise where we have 100% of our profits go towards closing the global education gap?  Starting out with no equity and sharing Adam's salary on a handshake deal, they've built Humanitix into an incredible organisation, giving close to $1 million a year to education projects through their work in Australia and New Zealand alone. How did the founders land on booking and ticketing? Why SaaS over fast moving consumer goods like many other profit-for-purpose brands? What does Humanitix need to win at as they take on global giants like Ticketek, Eventbrite and Ticketmaster? And how are they thinking about building awareness as they scale and grow internationally?

Luke Freeman is the Executive Director of Giving What We Can, a community of people seeking to maximise their charitable impact. Luke is interviewed by Josh Ross, the CEO of Humanitix, a ticketing platform that is set up as a charity so it can turn its profits into good.

Australian start-up Humanitix re-invests 100 percent of the profits from event ticket fees into education projects for disadvantaged kids.The start-up had to transition its operations online when the pandemic hit, and has since expanded from its ticketing core into helping hard-hit event organisers run virtual events and - when borders reopen - safer in-person events.

New Zealander Georgia Robertson is the CEO of Humanitix, an Australian ticketing app with a difference. The company was started by two friends in Sydney, who pooled their resources to make a ticket booking platform that would donate 100% of profits to charity, using the power of better tech to deliver lower costs to customers and clients.

In today's episode we are chatting with Joshua Ross and Adam McCurdie about their 5 Moments Towards Humanitix. You can learn more about what we're bringing to Australia at www.singularityuaustralia.com

In this episode, I am talking to a co-founder and director of Humanitix, Adam McCurdie. Humantix is a not-for-profit ticketing platform that takes the booking fees, that is usually at the end of a transaction when you're purchasing a ticket of some sort, and then distributes that money to either funding Indigenous Scholarships in Australia or to their Girls Education Programs. Adam talks about the goal of Humanitix is to be the leader in technology and in the events ticketing spaces so they can give other people similar opportunities that they've had. Adam says that the key component that has allowed Humanitix to flourish is having a good co-founding relationship with Joshua Ross. In this episode, you will learn how they have been able to turn an idea into an amazing business that is now providing a great contribution to the planet. He says their team is focused on making their clients happy because the happier their clients are, the more likely they will be referred, which means more money will go to the kids who need it. It's far better for your business to actually care about your clients and stop comparing yourself to other people. It's all about caring about each other, caring about clients, caring about kids, and the education they fund. Adams' biggest advice for new entrepreneurs, "Find people who are going to be your rock, whether that is a family member, a friend, a mentor because it's important to be able to show a healthy amount of vulnerability and connect with people." Adam says the biggest reason why people fail is because they never start. What you will discover: •What social enterprises need to do to flourish. •How Humantix is disrupting a giant industry and putting all their profits into funding education programs for disadvantaged kids. •What is a not-for-profit and how Humantix is able to run their business without shareholders and equity while still paying their team members appropriate salaries. •How to get your business off the ground (you don't need lots of money!) •Why you should be transparent about your business.

In this episode from _southstart I sat down with three incredible people: Adam McCurdie, Mark Reading and Sarah Gun. They were a part of a panel called “Social Impact: The Time is Now”, a really interesting discussion that dove into how we can align technology with humanity to tackle some of the most pressing issues that we face. We take a look into their worlds and what lies ahead for each of them.Mark is Head of the Foundation and the Australian Lead for the Pledge 1% Foundation. This foundation encourages, inspires and assists companies to pledge 1% of either their equity, profit, time or products to a chosen cause.Adam is the co-founder and director of Humanitix. A ticketing platform that allows events to make an impact as 100% of booking fees goes towards closing the education gap. They have programs helping girls go to school, scholarships available for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, and give nutritious meals to kids who need it as well as educating them on the importance of a balanced diet for a healthy body and mind.Sarah is the founder of GOGO Events, an Adelaide based company that employs those at risk of and facing homelessness. They run elaborate gala award nights, corporate celebrations, community festivals and more. They are also founding members of Carbon Neutral Adelaide, ensuring to take care of the planet by choosing local suppliers and producers.This was such a great chat and really inspired me to want to do more. I have signed our team at Digital Noir up to Pledge 1% and everyone has really got on board with this and we're having some great conversations about how we can donate our time and expertise.

Small Biz Matters – a half hour program each week where you can work ON your business rather than IN it.with Alexi Boyd, broadcaster, advocate and small business owner.Date: 4 February 2020 There aren’t too many of us who, in our early 30’s could’ve said we had founded a successful, world renowned social enterprise, travelled to a third world country multiple times & been inspired in business, had billionaire mentors, and then had it all crashing down around us, only to pick ourselves up & spoken publicly all over the world about that journey. But Adam Long certainly can. He’s earned the title as the Ethical CEO through all these challenges. A powerhouse of the social enterprise world. Adam Long is cofounder of Conscious Step: Socks That Fight Poverty, the founding CEO of Smarter Drafter, and as The Ethical CEO finds revenue for businesses that matter, such as Humanitix - a name synonymous with doing good in the events world. He’s going to share with us his journey - and it is not always warm and fuzzies smooth sailing in the not for profit sector. Welcome to the show Adam. Topics we’ll be covering: Adam’s Experience Industrial design student pushing back against the structured education at uni & arguing that the resolution to the problems they posed wasn’t a “thing” but changes in policy, social constraints are the solution. The Boxing Day Tsunami triggered many years of depression. To cope with the depression, Adam started volunteering with Rotary and then Engineers Without Borders in the Philippines. You met Jacobia, a little girl in the village in which Adam was volunteering, who wasn’t in school. Her story showed you that small things can make a big difference. Adam’s first attempt to change the world was a sustainable 3D-printing business called BeeHive, founded with investment from Small Giants, the family office of Daniel Almagor (who founded Engineers Without Borders). Adam discovered that he didn’t have the skills to run a business – and it ran out of money in under 12 months. Adam had to let go two people on Xmas eve, the negativity around the feeling of losing your own and someone else’s money was awful. We are lucky for the support network in Australia (i.e. Centrelink), which gives us a chance to fail – and try again. So what is impact investing? Looking for “shareholder value” that actually matches to values, rather than just a financial return. Business is the vehicle for social change. What’s the difference between social enterprise & NFP? Self sufficiency vs dependency on donations Examples – Conscious Step & Humanitix Journey of Conscious Step – idea, testing, from Glebe markets in Sydney to being worn by Matt Damon, Al Gore and Jane Goodall. Learning from Adam How can you be sure the self-sustaining model of your social enterprise is working? The business model matters – the social impact has to be inherent in the operations of the business, not something that happens only when the organisation makes a profit. Profit can be “made to disappear”, so social impact must be made an operating cost. For example, Conscious Step donates to charities for every pair of socks made (not sold – it’s up to Conscious Step to recover the funds). What are some of the mistakes you made along the way that made you stray from your path? Knowing what skills you’re lacking and who to engage with others to help, teach or be that person – for Adam it was marketing and learned lots of different businesses and different models So you want to start a social enterprise? Start Up Top Tips A social enterprise is no different to running any other business. People won’t buy your product just because it’s ethical. It needs to be the same quality, or better, and it needs to be the same price, or better. It’s why Humanitix is succeeding. Address root causes. You don’t want a business that is dependent on the problem staying a problem, or oppressed people staying oppressed. Make outrageous asks everyday – that’s how Humanitix partnered with Canva and Atlassian. Adam continues to work with businesses that matter on their strategy and marketing. To find out more go to his website: TheEthicalCEO.com And if you want to use his staff discount to buy socks from Conscious Step, use the code “ADAMSENTME”.

Mark Reading is head of the Atlassian Foundation, he’s the bridge between Atlassian, and the charities they choose to support through their Pledge-1% model. The Foundation is pushing back against the most restrictive norms of the Not-For-Profit sector to drive new projects and funding models in the field of educating disadvantaged youth around the world. I was introduced to Mark by, Adam McCurdie who’s the founder of Humanitix. You see Mark and the Atlassian foundation are supporting Humanitix through an innovative model of charitable impact investing, which he discusses. So please have a listen.

Georgia is a changemaker, ex-lawyer and now CEO of Humanitix NZ, and she shares about building the world's first non-profit events ticketing platform backed by Google and Atlassian, the value of education and the power of community. In this interview we talk about her childhood, the value of community, the importance of vulnerability and being honest in her life and career.  We also discuss her new role as the CEO of Humanitix which she began at the start of 2019 and we discuss the business model that leverages the power of booking fees to drive impact at scale for disadvantaged children in New Zealand and abroad.  Humanitix: https://www.humanitix.com Ignite consultants: https://www.igniteconsultants.co.nz Global Shapers: https://www.globalshapers.org Youthline: https://www.youthline.co.nz "We are passionate about disrupting the events ticketing industry and redirecting 100% of profits from bookings fees to projects that address the education gaps affecting the most disadvantaged children here in Australia and overseas. We believe education is a ticket to opportunity and that every child has the right to reach their potential. Our projects aim to create a world where all children are born into a community where they can flourish and have the tools to create their own impact. We invite you to partner with us as we transform ticketing into a force for good."    

Adam McCurdie shares some of the key lessons learnt from co-founding Humanitix, from cultivating the right mindset, to staying the course, as well as insights into the social enterprise sector (and ongoing debate as to how the sector defines itself).

Everybody hates paying booking fees when buying tickets, and for Adam McCurdie that was an opportunity. He recognised the ticketing industry’s profits were ripe for a little 'impact disruption'. The result was Humanitix. It’s a charity, that looks a lot like a business. And it’s both, and that’s what we like here at the Good Future podcast. My name is John Treadgold, and I’m asking the big questions about the future of sustainable business, the new-economy and how your spending and investment decisions, no matter how big or small, can have an Impact. Adam McCurdie has had a wild ride as he’s bootstrapped Humanitix into the thriving social enterprise that it is today. They’ve won million-dollar awards from Google, and they’ve wooed big donors like the Atlassian Foundation. But as you listen to Adam, and hear him explain the concept and their journey, it’ll all become clear why. These guys are very good operators, they have lofty social impact goals, and while they’re using the power of technology, the real innovation is in their business model. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did. I pressed Adam for some more details about the 90 second pitch they crafted to win themselves the Google Impact Challenge and he offered some tips after the credits.

Microsoft Hack for Good Sydney  March 8 and 9 2018 (in conjunction with Social Ventures Australia)   I was lucky enough to attend and judge Hack4Good at PwC's Barangaroo offices last week with 12 of Microsoft's  partner organisations participating hosted by David Masters from Microsoft. The event focused on hacking solutions for people with disabilities. There  were three winning teams: Humanitix who are transforming their event platform so that those with a disability can clearly communicate their accessibility needs to event organisers, Clinic to Cloud who proposed a personal disability passport to easily communicate with service providers, and PwC who explored the use of Microsofts cognitive services to clearly communicate the emotions of users during a  Skype call for those who may not be able to see or hear. With one in five Australians living with a disability today, it was inspiring to see the commitment to accessibility from Microsofts  partner community.  A big thanks to PwC for hosting the event and to Leonie from the Deaf Society of NSW, Rocco from KPMG, Kenny from Microsoft, Dianne from Social Ventures Australia and David Masters for their invaluable guidance to Microsoft  teams over the course of the hack.   Skype Accessibility from the Skype Blog   From the Skype blog, Microsoft will be working hard to improve accessibility of Skype arose iOS, Android, Mac and Windows, and are urging people to give them feedback.   https://blogs.skype.com/news/2018/03/16/improving-skype-accessibility/#.WqxltA6wSJw.twitter   A Reminder the CSUN 2018 is on This Week   If you use Twitter and you want to follow what is going on with CSUN, follow the Hash Tag CSUNATC18.
