WHO IS THE LAB COMMUNITY FOR?

Our community is a space for collaboration and learning between practitioners working to change the financial system. At the heart of our community are the Lab Fellows, Fellowship alumni and Senior Fellows: purpose-driven leaders who are pioneering a new financial system. They are joined by innovators and influencers from finance, tech, policy and civil society, working together to create change.

If you support the Lab’s vision of a financial system that serves people and planet and want to help us get there – the Lab community is for you!

Meet the Lab community

There is such a huge amount of trust between us, and we are continuing to support each other and to work together to share contacts and resources. The biggest resource is the collective. We need to grow the collaboration, and I want to give back to the Lab and to future Fellows.

How can I get involved?

Community members support each other in a wide range of ways, including matchmaking with relevant contacts from the network, a mutual mentoring programme for learning and development, and peer communities curated around common challenges or areas of interest.

We also offer opportunities for Lab community members to contribute towards the Lab’s wider work. From facilitating or sponsoring a community event to sharing your expertise through teaching on our programmes or offering pro-bono support, we welcome community members to get involved in our work and mission.
