Welcome to The Spark, the official newsletter of Christensen Global!
I am thrilled to share that I have relaunched Christensen Global with a growing team and clients with whom we are partnering to develop, accelerate and scale solutions for impact globally. After spending the past five years building an organization dedicated to community resilience to meet local needs and build a model for other places in need, I am very proud of the Sun Valley Institute for Resilience’s new leadership team: Executive Director, Lexie Praggastis, and board co-chairs Mike Higgs and Jeffrey Hogue. Be sure to check out below the Institute's new place-based investment vehicle for resilience, the Impact Idaho Fund!
At this time of urgency and opportunity, our mission at Christensen Global is to achieve collective wellbeing by building a just, resilient, and thriving world, inspired by our vision and grounded by our values built from grounded expertise, inspired by nature, leveraging the strength of story, building community and expanding empowerment.
Why “The Spark”? In our work, we collaborate, ideate and activate, sparking change with inspiration and information, leveraging decades of concrete results and driven by a passion for justice, for nature’s brilliance, and to finding smarter solutions to our global challenges. We work across the ecosystem of impact, with entrepreneurs, investors and philanthropists, major corporations, multilateral institutions and policymakers.
In our client spotlights below and on our website, you’ll see one of our current priorities is to work with innovators from key sectors: buildings and infrastructure, food and agriculture, and finance and philanthropy. By focusing on these areas with these founders and their firms, we can maximize our impact -- and fun! While the news can be dire about the state of our planet and our societies, our Christensen Global community inspires us every day.
Join us to build back better, together!
Let’s do this,
Aimée Christensen
