Founded in March 2020, Impact 100 London is a collective philanthropy with the mission to enhance philanthropic engagement by pooling resources and investing collectively in charities benefitting marginalised women and girls in London. The premise is simple: each grant cycle we aim to recruit at least 100 individuals, each donating £1,000, and together we decide which charities receive our £100,000 grants. In our first two grant cycles, a total of £280,000 has been awarded to six outstanding local women and girls charities (two £100,000 grants and four merit grants). Join Impact 100 London to learn about exceptional, under-the-radar charities as well as the philanthropic process - and help us to spread the culture of philanthropy.

To meet these needs, we offer a variety of training courses to provide support with everything from getting the job to improving performance or reaching the next level of career development. Our courses span both the technical and softer skills needed in the finance industry. We work with firms across the financial markets, including: private equity and hedge funds, growth and venture capital funds.
