Monika Frech, Yunus Social Business: “Our mission is to work towards the three zeros, that's the vision of Professor Mohammad Yunus, one of our co founders: zero poverty, zero net carbon emissions and zero unemployment.”
Hamzah Sarwar, Reckitt: On solving the water and sanitation financing gap: “We need to take both a top down and a bottom up approach where we're fostering grassroots innovations that have the ability to scale but need a guiding hand.”
Monika Frech, Yunus Social Business: ""It's not just about giving funding or getting mentorship, it's about listening closely. What is the need? What’s the actual demand for solutions? That can be very different from what we expect. And then it's about capturing and scaling up what we find."
Jenifer Colpas, Tierra Grata Embajadora: "[From business] we would like to have meaningful relationships that go beyond the business, beyond the numbers so we can find drivers for transformation to deliver dignity. Because at the end, we are delivering dignity to those left behind."
