More About the Author

I am currently holding three positions on three continents!

I'm a Senior Fellow with the Center for Social Investing at Heidelberg University (Germany); and am also Senior Advisor to The Sterling Group (a multi-family office based in Hong Kong pursuing a sustainable/impact investing strategy for its clients).

I was a founding board member of Pacific Community Ventures, founding director of REDF and have been affiliated with various leading investment firms, such as Generation Investment Management (London).

I'm also something of an accidental academic, with an appointment as adjunct professor with NYU-Abu Dhabi, in addition to having held appointments at Harvard, Stanford and Oxford Business schools.

I have presented my work at the World Economic Forum, CGI and other events around the world. My various papers/research may be found at www.blendedvalue.org and are available for free...
