How Emily is shaping the future with confidence

"I have the great privilege of working with — and learning from — pioneering entrepreneurs who are using the power of the market to innovate better answers to some of society’s toughest challenges. They are improving quality job creation, supporting women and underrepresented groups to participate in the economy, bringing access to vital goods and services, and restoring the environment. Lighting the road ahead for big business, their technologies and business models have the potential to disrupt entire industries and to create transformative social and commercial value.

By extending EY professionals’ skills, knowledge and experience to impact enterprises on a not-for-profit basis and forging collaborations with like-minded organizations, I am helping to create long-term value for society and the planet."
