Business Ownership
Purpose belongs in the business model.
We welcome conversations with social entrepreneurs building commercially viable responses to meaningful needs.
Commercial resilience and purpose, considered together.
We consider purpose-led businesses with a credible commercial foundation and a clear account of the outcomes they seek to create — employment, clean energy, fair supply chains, education and community wellbeing among them.
We explore how the enterprise earns revenue, whom it serves, what resources it requires, and how its intended outcomes can be assessed. We also discuss how its purpose would be reflected in the ownership relationship and governance arrangements.
What we consider
The questions we explore together.
- How the enterprise earns revenue and sustains its activities.
- Who it serves, and why they value what it provides.
- What resources, systems and people it needs to grow.
- How its intended outcomes are defined and assessed.
- How its purpose is reflected in ownership and governance.
Ownership and philanthropy
Two distinct conversations.
Business ownership discussions are separate from charitable support. A business seeking an ownership relationship should introduce itself here; it will not be routed into a grant process.
The Courtney Jordan Foundation has its own focus and process. Enquiries relating to the Foundation should be made through its separate route.
A strong business. A new chapter. A conversation worth having.
Whether you are considering a sale, seeking a substantial ownership partner, or building a commercially grounded social enterprise, introduce us to your business and what you want to achieve.
