Welcome to the show your work episode. We’re on chapter six and today we’re talking with two business leaders who epitomize purpose-led, community-focused work. Hari Balasubramanian is the co-founder and managing partner of Halifax-based EcoAdvisors, which works with the private, public and philanthropic sectors to develop robust sustainability programs, and EcoInvestors Capital, which invests in growth stage businesses that are environmentally net positive. Allison Gibson is part owner of Paintbox a hospitality hub and social enterprise located in Toronto’s Regent Park neighbourhood that made a COVID-19 business-saving pivot to create and support Nibbly, an online grocery store, located in what was once the Paintbox Bistro. Both EcoAdvisors and Paintbox are Best for the World BCorps, which means they are in the top 10 per cent of all BCorps. They put in the work and in this episode they tell us how it’s done.
