Learn from a business that breaks away from pure capital growth and creates social impact.

Hybrid organisations are revolutionising the for-profit sector by running for-purpose. Humanitix is a leading organisation that prioritises its social mission, while sustaining operations with commercial revenue. It’s also rewriting the rules of the ticketing industry, which is famous for excessive fees and poor customer service.

Meet Jenny Chung, chief of staff at Humanitix. Humanitix is the only ticketing platform that dedicates all profits to charity.

In this talk, Jenny demystifies the 100% profit-for-purpose business model. By placing humanity at the forefront of every decision, Humanitix is proving that it’s possible to successfully scale competitive enterprises.
