Focussing on practical paths you can start in the next 6 to 12 months: fee-for-service, social procurement, corporate partnerships beyond CSR, outcomes funding such as pay-for-success, and blended finance with catalytic capital. You will learn where demand is growing, how to package your capabilities for real buyers and investors, and how to de-risk first pilots with clear outcomes and measurement.
