Exploring financial tools for food system innovators
In the last CoP session, Fiona Steel from Good Food Oxfordshire shared with us the current situation around core funding for food system innovators and her experiences with alternative funding routes through her involvement with the OxFarmToFork initiative.
One of the key challenges is to trigger the interest of investors when it comes to financial returns for social and environmental value. Expect to explore alternative investment models, such as social stock exchanges and social value trading, and the link of these models to local council procurement frameworks.
