Biography
I am a founding partner of Agrego.org and co-owner of Cinderhouse Creative.
I have 10+ years of international management experience in for-profit organisations. In August of 2015, I stepped into the 3rd sector full-time carrying with me a background in business development, marketing and design experience won in the US, China and Australia.
Our team is comprised of individuals from business, private education and creative industries. Collectively, we build social enterprise case studies that are designed and iterated to be relatively easy and inexpensive to expand or replicate in emerging markets and low income countries.
We use our models to lift as many people as possible permanently out of poverty.
Our model is unique due to the immutable characteristics built into all Agrego entities:
— 100% of profit is used towards a philanthropic cause
— We strive to set a precedent in transparency, financially and operationally
— Board meetings are recorded and made publicly available
— All owners/shareholders will have total possible earnings capped to reasonable salaries which will be prominently
& publicly displayed online
— Will work to develop staff towards individual goals and passions
— Strive to decentralize ownership (without endangering Agrego's immutable characteristic)
Our first case studies are:
http://eduku.org - Educational products and services that fund schools and training in low income countries
http://domogo.co - Real Estate Agencies that battle homelessness
http://stockdisrupt.com - Graphic Microstock used to fund opportunity and creative training to low income countries.
Eduku, our final self-managed case study is launching in early April.
If you've made it to here, then thanks for powering through all that text. We'd love to have a cup of coffee with you at the 2016 Skoll World Forum. Feel free to contact us to meet up.
