The Long Run Venture is a purpose driven-for profit business that inspires and equips entrepreneur led solutions to long run challenges. Through campaigns and consultancy, we combine three capabilities: Data and intelligence – partnerships with world-leading technologies and world-class institutions to anchor long run thinking. Storytelling and behaviour change – re-framing problems and solutions such that they mobilise people-led change now and for the long run. Finance & business model innovation – accelerating early-stage, high-growth firms, and stimulating cross-sector and cross-discipline collaboration.
CoSpA (the Co-Sponsorship Agency) delivers cross-sector projects that make money and make a difference. We work with brands, causes and governments to create on-the-ground activity. From people fixing their own community buildings (with Wickes), to inspiring thousands of schools to make films (with Apple and MTV), we bring people together in interesting ways. Oli Barrett is a co-founder of Missions, StartUp Britain and ‘Make Your Mark with a Tenner’ (a challenge to 60,000 school pupils to see what they can turn £10 into in just one month).
