Lunch & Learn: Will Richardson (Giant Leap)
Lunch and Learn at Sanders Place Backing Impact: A Conversation with Will Richardson
A fireside chat with Will Richardson, Managing Partner at Giant Leap, hosted by Bec Rozencwajg
Will Richardson has spent the past decade backing founders with impact built into their revenue model.
As Managing Partner of Giant Leap, Australia's first venture capital fund dedicated solely to impact startups, Will has helped grow the fund since its 2016 launch. Giant Leap is now on its second fund, still backing companies that put people and planet at the heart of their business.
Join us for lunch and a fireside chat between Will and Bec about what led him to impact investing, how Giant Leap decides who to back, what founders need to have in place to get on its radar, and how the rest of us can support people building a fairer, lower-emissions economy.
Bring your questions: there will be time for Q&A at the end.
Founders, stick around! Will and Bec will host an hour of informal office hours right after the session. No booking needed, just pull up a chair.
When: Wednesday 11 November 2026, 12:30 pm to 1:15 pm, with office hours from 1:15 pm
