Welcome to our second of a two-part podcast series focused on social finance in Canada
If you’ve been following the news in the world of social finance, you probably heard that Canada recently launched the Social Finance Fund. But what is it exactly? How does it work? And how will it impact the sector in its ability to tackle our most pressing challenges? I’m honored to have Member of Parliament – and one of the Fund’s most ardent champions – Ryan Turnbull join our podcast to discuss those questions and lot more – next.

Welcome to In the Business of Change, where we speak with social entrepreneurs impacting their communities and the world. I’m your host Elisa Birnbaum publisher and editor in chief of SEE Change Magazine.

Ryan then explains how the Fund will work, its key players, its potential impact, and why it’s considered such a significant milestone.
