This roundtable discussion will be chaired by Senior Advisor at The Fore, Sally Hotchkin, with four key panellists:
• Jade Brudenell: Executive Director at The Conservation Collective, experienced fundraiser and marketer for environmental investment sector.

Our panellists will share their insights on their experience of collaboration between the charity and private sectors to tackle environmental problems, as well as the opportunities and challenges faced in these collaborations. They will also discuss how corporate employees can support charities beyond funding. To encourage open and host conversation, this peer session will operate under Chatham House rules.
