In this week's issue of Travers Smith's Sustainability Insights we are looking at the future for UK sustainability policy. We have released the third episode in our podcast series Sustainability Insights … in conversation. In conversation with Simon Witney, Ellen De Kreij, lead advisor to Apax’s Operational Excellence Practice on Impact and Sustainability, explains how Apax selects impact investments, how they work with management to promote impact, and how they report on impact to their investors. Listen to the conversation here, and please subscribe to receive future editions in this podcast series direct to your inbox.
