The gap between the $300 Bn funding available for research in private and public organisations and where those funds are needed has a massive macro impact on society. Profound Impact, which started initially in helping impact led researchers communicate their value, has now applied machine learning models to the entire universe of grant and funding process to better connect funding available with the individuals and institutions best able to leverage or win those funds.The process of grant funding is opaque and inefficient which takes away the researcher from the actual work of research, research that drives breakthrough outcomes for humanity Sherry reminds us to think big but act in an ultra focused way to get to market, never to be too proud to build something simple that has discrete value in service of the larger objective.https://profoundimpact.com/ Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth Ventures More about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

Potentially the most contentious interview that we’ve down to date we explore the role propane and natural gas plays in the transition to clean, renewable energy.As the CEO of the Propane Education & Research Council Tucker Perkins has decades of experience across the energy sector and helps to put natural gas into context across the energy needs of our modern world.As we transition to renewable energy there is a segment of the energy mix where energy density is critical (think shipping and logistics) where solar, wind & storage battle to be viable so the critical question is what liquid fuels (that have the requisite energy density) and how are they created.We explore the differences in what gas is burned which then impacts the level of either CO2 and other greenhouse gases such as methane released. Beyond how it’s used, how it is sourced is an even bigger lever. New approaches to liquid fuel creation, through the use of biofuels, provides the promise of CO2 free energy, that is accessible and affordable to bring the quality of life we are used to in the developed world in the developing worldhttps://propane.com/Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

In our latest specialist interview we talk to Ashlee Sang who has spent decades working with impact led founders, companies and non-profits about brand messaging and communications in the context of impact led ventures.Ashlee takes us through a framework of thinking on how to connect values, actions and messaging so customers or other stakeholders not only understand what you stand for but also what this means for you and you brand specifically.It's not enough to simply define values but define what you actually mean in terms of your actions, especially where those reach the customer/stakeholder Whilst this is a challenge and an opportunity for all founders and brands, it's uniquely relevant to impact led brands.

In episode 54 we talk to Yellowdig founder Shaunak Roy about education. Our current educational norms are based on constructs dating back to the industrial revolution and more recently post WW2 but the world we live in today, especially the world today's students inhabit, is vastly different. How do class rooms, teaches and our educational organisations need to adapt? What are the patterns students encounter outside of the classroom and how might these inform how we teach and support students (and indeed each other) to improve learning outcomeshttps://www.yellowdig.co/ Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

Seabin burst on to the scene back in 2016 with a innovative bin designed to clean up oceans and waterways, installed in marinas with a video that went globally viral. 5 years on and whilst they have sold bins in over 50 countries globally and cleaned up hundreds of tons of plastics from billions of litres of filtered water the business wasn't itself sustainable, in fact it was in trouble.In this interview with founder & CEO Pete Ceglinski we talk in detail about the huge pivot they have undertaken from selling Seabins to selling the data they generate. Just a year into this new model and they have a sustainable economic model and are poised to take this model into the mainstream with a plan to launch in a 100 locations in the next 2 decades.A critical interview for any impact led founder who may need to rethink THEIR whole strategy or business model and a fascinating and important listen for anyone considering taking part in the Seabin crowdfunding. https://seabin.io/https://tnfd.global/ - Tasksforce for Nature Related Disclosures Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

In episode 55 we talk to Jan Skjoldhammer, the founder of NoviOcean. Wave power is one of the least progressed forms of renewable energy but there is an infinite amount of wind creating waves and those waves end up useful right along the coast where over 40% of populations live. In a water locked country like Australia that number rises to 80%The challenge with traditional wave generated power is not enough power and too expensive to build, deploy and maintain.NoviOcean changes all that with an array of innovations (which I attempt to describe in an audio interview!). The combination of a novel way of extracting the energy as well as a manufacturing approach that greatly reduces the cost to build and deploy is what makes this technology compelling.This interview is also unashamedly a challenge to some of the larger ocean based companies in Australia (gas, oil, offshore wind etc) to engage and build a full scale pilot here in Australia, much like the one slated for deployment in Spain in the coming year https://noviocean.energy/ Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

Ever wondered about the environmental impact of the shirt (or dress!) on your back? The textile industry is a huge source of environmental impact across chemical, energy, heat and water usage, even before the shirt/dress is made. Cotton, as the dominant natural fibre is one of the biggest offenders which is where Graham Stewart of Fibre52 comes in. They have pioneered a new approach to this entire process that drastically reduces all these inputs and actually improves the strength and durability of the material produced by as much as 50% leading to longing lasting clothing as well. Graham talks about the importance of understanding and leveraging brand to build consumer trust and adoption after many years working to develop the Woolmark brand across Australiahttps://www.fibre52.com/ Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

In 3+ years we have never spoken about cryptocurrencies, but in episode 52 we change all that. We spoke to Winding Tree founder Maksim Izmaylov about travel bookings and decentralised stores of value and record (ie crypto).What might initially feel like an odd use case turns out to have the potential to shift mainstream adoption of decentralised commerce and financial transactions, ironically by shifting the focus away from the holding and movement of money but instead enabling better, more efficient access to resources (in this case accomodation bookings) www.windingtree.com Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

How do you enable and empower the next generation of impact led founders? You have to meet them where they are to help them solve the problems they understand and/or experience first hand by running a global network of impact focused accelerator programs.The individuals best placed to solve the challenges in their local community are typically furthest from the resources and support we tend to think of for early stage founders.

We completely unpack the retail energy market with a focus on the multi-tenant property market (retail spaces, aged healthcare etc), a cohort who traditionally have had virtually no way to pull levers to either improve their energy mix or energy prices.We uncover how the high market volatility has decimated some of the options previously available and how the energy grids and business models simply haven't kept up with the seismic shift to renewables.Finally, someone explains to me (and all of us) what 'the grid' actually is and we get a first look at Rex Energy's groundbreaking X1 technology that has enabled some early customers to be over 90% renewable ongoing.Rex Energy - https://rexenergy.com.au/About the ShowShape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

In episode 37 we chat with Lottie the founder of Banish about how a simple purchase of a metal straw to try and reduce her plastic use lead to her realising that the entire way we look at sustainability and the part that we play needed to change.With little to no regulation or rules around what labels companies can make-up and current regulations on how you can package certain products leading to even more waste, the complexity can make it impossible to really know if you are purchasing a truly sustainable product. Lottie's mission is to do the heavy lifting of researching so people can better understand their personal waste footprint.We hope you enjoy this episode and check out all the amazing products, services and knowledge Lottie has to share in the links below in episode notes.

In episode 25 we chat with the CEO of WorkRestart, Helen Black about recidivism; what it is, how to pronounce it and most importantly why it is so important to change the current systems for people in contact with the criminal justice system.Recidivism or reoffending, creates a ripple effect that negatively impacts individuals, their families and their communities. Almost half of the people released from prison in Australia will return to prison within two years, and sadly that percentage only gets higher as years go on.If you are one of our many international listeners you may be shocked to learn that the UK for instance has a 75% recidivism rate within nine years of being released and the US sits at a staggering 83%, showing just how important it is to change the current systems in order to address these trends and give people a chance at a better future while also reducing the impacts of crime for the wider community.Providing meaningful and enriching experiences for incarcerated people can help them identify their potential. Real change lies in establishing connections to social enterprises and businesses that can provide ‘next day out’ employment opportunities & harnessing the potential of ‘double impact’ by establishing enterprises that serve communities in diverse areas of need.

In todays episode we chat with Lulu Luchaire the founder of Ondalinda Foundation, a non-profit project that assists indigenous communities throughout Mexico in preserving their cultural heritage and cultivating a new generation of interdisciplinary artists. Part of proceeds from the Ondalinda x Careyes art exhibition go directly to the Huichol (Wixarica), Purépecha, and other indigenous tribes from Mexico - greatly enabling them to invest in basic infrastructure and resources, to educate and raise awareness for their cause, and to achieve sustainability on a long-term basis. We discuss the importance of art, community, heritage, sustainability, ritual, and connectivity to inspire humankind and reestablish systems that unite us, rather than separate us. As we are learning every day, the current “win-win” model of commerce that has shaped our world is not a sustainable business practice; by focusing only on the exchange of “buy and sell”, we neglect a third exchange - giving back - which is in fact the very element that brings us together and makes the world a more peaceful and harmonious place for us all to live.https://www.ondalinda.com/foundation/Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

In today's episode we chat with Anika Molesworth who is an agro-ecological scientist and a young farmer. In this episode we discuss the massive changes happening in modern day farming and how innovative and forward thinking farmers are finding a way to flourish through the challenges of climate change, massive drought, financial challenges and supply and demand changes due to population growth. To quote Anika "The most important topics of social and environmental sustainability can seem daunting and can trigger disengagement. The biggest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it. What each of us does makes a difference – from a parent doing the grocery shopping to the highest level of policymaker" we hope you enjoy this episode and you can learn more about her exceptional work by following the links below in episode notes http://www.climatewiseagriculture.com/https://twitter.com/ClimateWiseAg Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

In episode 13 we chat with Jessica Kung Dreyfus about how we can challenge our approach to design thinking by looking at systems of Architectural Ornament and sacred geometry to reimagine our buildings, art, public spaces and even entire companies. In a post-modern world (we explain that that means in the show!) we have lost the ornament and flourishes that inhabit the edges. What did we lose and why does it matter now? How can we re-engage paradigms in the history of art, architecture, and music, and apply them to current design practice to make things more interesting, beautiful, and familiar?Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth VenturesMore about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.
