We're bringing founders and funders together under one (virtual) roof to hear how Library of Things used a FairX model to raise £1.5 million whilst putting their business mission first.
TBC
Emma Shaw will explain how:
- Library of Things is building a regenerative and rewarding business to create value for every stakeholder
- they attracted funders with their innovative 'fair return' investment model
- they safeguarded their social mission with a specialised governance structure
- they set the principles of their intentions to exit, risk and return, and built trust with funders
- You can apply this model in your fundraise (or find an alternative funding fit for your organisation)
Testimonials
"Absolutely fantastic session! Really grateful to you both for putting this highly informative session on. Thank you thank you"
"A really valuable session with Emma. I very much enjoyed hearing about their funding journey. Finding out about the Fair X Model was game-changing."
"I really enjoyed listening to this and it's given me a lot of food for thought. I'm going away to reflect on the difference between a purposeb4profit model and planetb4profit model, if there is any at all. Thank you so much for putting this workshop on!"

"What makes the FairX model different from the norm?"
This regenerative investment model works by:
- putting the business mission first and locking this in with all stakeholders, including investors
- enabling fair returns to its investors without compromising the impact
- adopting steward ownership principles, with a guardian shareholder
We'll dive deep into the funding model, taking you through how it works in great detail.
