Rachel Stephenson Sheff speaks with two brilliant executives from the international fashion brand, Kurt Geiger: Neil Clifford, CEO, and Pascale Montaner, Vice President of Global Marketing & Executive Director of the Kurt Geiger Kindness Foundation.
In this wonderfully transparent and energising conversation, they dive into all things corporate impact, including:
🟡 Why Kurt Geiger decided to start a formal charitable Foundation, and the biggest surprises and learnings along the way
🟡 How Kurt Geiger took this one step further, and is now launching a bold and unique in-house flagship programme - Business By Design - which aims to support young professionals entering the creative industries, particularly those from marginalised backgrounds
🟡 The practicalities of co-creating these visions alongside young people, in a true by-and-for model
🟡 The best advice Neil & Pascale have for professionals of all ages (it’s amazing)
At I.G., we’ve been thrilled to work directly with the Kurt Geiger team - and are particularly excited about Business By Design. The pilot launches soon, and is a completely free and subsidised programme for young people - particularly those from marginalised and underrepresented backgrounds. It’s aimed at training them up in all the core functions of a fashion business (from design to finance and marketing) so they can enter and thrive in the industry.
If you want to learn more, or if you are a young person yourself who wants to apply (applications due 12th November!), visit their website https://www.kurtgeiger.com/business-by-design or get in touch with them directly (foundation@kurgeiger.com).
