Zahid Torres-Rahman is the co-Founder and CEO of Business Fights Poverty. This conversation looks at ways that we can harness the power of collaboration to drive social impact.
During this podcast you hear the very personal journey of Zahid – why being born in Pakistan, growing up in the UK and now living in Spain with mixed heritage drives him to create connections as part of his core purpose.
You will hear why Business Fights Poverty is a BCorp, what a clear social mission means and where the organisation is likely to be going in the future. From creating effective collaboration, tapping into collective insight and creating intentional spaces to forge trust.
The Business Fights Poverty is a global community of people and organisations passionate about building an equitable and resilient future. On a mission to unlock the power of business to help improve the lives, livelihoods and learning opportunities for the most vulnerable people and communities.
