Amber Brandner and Brad Harris are the co-founders and principals of A Frame - a venture studio as a force for better businesses. In this episode they discuss their experiences, motivations and the community aspects of building better from the bottom up.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS EPISODE

• What are the biggest challenges for mission-driven founders to structure impact at early stages?
• ‘Humanity-centred’ design rather than human-centred design: looking at problems from the root cause with a long-term mindset, being iterative, continual refinement and building with community
• The power of the collective and what is possible when we come together and create from a space that is bigger than ourselves.
