"Creating impact HAS to come from the heart and the soul. Whatever that thing is that sparks you, what gets you back up from those bumps and bruises; once you know what that is, the question is what skill-set can you bring to create the most value or make the most impact?"
Episode #26 of Season 2 of The Social Impactors Podcast features #SocialImpactor Brian Smith, CEO & Founder of Rhiza Capital, an impact investment group of funds that is intent on raising and deploying much needed capital to social and impact entrepreneurs whom will lead the change we need.
Brian and I talked about how he began creating impactful change in the world with Persephone Brewing, why he created Rhiza Capital to deploy funds to social impactors around the world, how Rhiza Capital is disrupting traditional capital flow for entrepreneurs, and his knowledge on the two ways you can truly create impact in your community.
