The Net Impact Club, Consulting Club and Corporate Leadership Club are excited to host Gib Bulloch. Gib is founder and former Executive Director of Accenture Development Partnerships (ADP), a TedX and Clinton Global Initiative speaker, and has written extensively for the Stanford Social Innovation Review, Huffington Post, Devex and Bloomberg Businessweek.

Today, over half of the largest economies in the world are global businesses - controlled by the few, while impacting the many. Business has the power to change the world. But what if we, as individuals, had the power to change the world of business?

Gib’s message is a simple one and a call to action for the ‘The Intrapreneur’, a new breed of social activist working within today’s business world - to be the change within a company. Intrapreneurs, as mavericks and rebels, bring their entrepreneurial prowess to big business, acting as catalysts for change from inside out and bottom up.

Join Gib to hear his story of starting ADP and how you can bring about positive impact within large organisations - whether it'd be in banking, consulting, tech, start-ups or any other sector.

“Business has a crucial role to play in helping to deliver the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. Gib Bulloch’s work as an ‘intrapreneur’ within Accenture is proof of how some of the best ideas can emerge bottom up, by innovative, passionate employees."
Paul Polman, CEO, Unilever
