I'm looking for social enterprises that are currently raising investment capital (or planning to begin a raise in the next few months) that would be interested in engaging with my Oxford MBA students. The students would be creating a fundraising strategy document that would include an initial due diligence report on your Impact Thesis / Theory of Change, Product/Technology, Business model and Financial overview, Team and Organization, and Market. They would also includ a list of potential investors to approach and suggestions around deal structure / fundraising strategy. The commitment would consist of 2 x 1 hour sessions with the group of students and sending a packet of information including current pitch deck and business information.
