Description
Virgin Unite is the not for profit Entrepreneurial Foundation for the Virgin Group and acts as a catalyst for entrepreneurial, business based solutions to social and environmental issues
Its aim is to revolutionize the way businesses and the social sector work together – driving business as a force for good, based on the belief that this is the only way we can tackle the tough challenges facing the world today
Crucially, all of Virgin Unite’s overheads are covered by Richard and the Virgin Group, meaning that 100% of donations received are able to go direct to the frontline.
Virgin Unite is built on two core platforms….
1. An entrepreneurial incubator – identifying gaps & ideas that can change the world, scaling them up, ensuring they can stand on their own and spinning them off.
2. Business mobilisation & Inspiration – making is simple and easy for our own businesses as well as others to be a force for good.
