Episode Details

We’re joined by Sir Ronnie Cohen - a man whose vision has shaped two industries: European venture capital and global impact investing. Born in Egypt and forced to flee as a child, Sir Ronnie arrived in the UK with little more than resilience and hope. He went on to become President of the Oxford Union, earn an MBA from Harvard, and co-found Apax Partners, one of Europe’s leading private equity firms. But that was only the beginning. Driven by a deeper mission, Sir Ronnie turned his focus to social investment - founding Social Finance, Big Society Capital, and spearheading a global movement that’s redefining how capital serves humanity. He now serves as Chairman of the Global Steering Group for Impact Investment, and his new book “On Impact: A Guide to the Impact Revolution” is a bold call to action for us all - investors, entrepreneurs, business leaders, citizens - to place impact at the heart of everything we do. This is a conversation about money, meaning, and what it truly takes to change the world.
