Bristol & Bath Regional Capital CIC - Expert Impact

Edward Rowberry,

Bristol & Bath Regional Capital CIC

Met with Julia Groves

BBRC creates positive change in the Bristol and Bath region by raising and deploying impact investment and also the development and creation of homes.

We use civic led, commercially innovative investment to address systemic inequalities in our region. We believe that an inclusive local economy just works better. When everyone plays their part, our regional economy will be more creative, resilient, and vibrant. We’re working to be the driving force behind this change.

It was really good to chat with Julia. She was encouraging, friendly and approachable, and asked insightful questions about me and the business. Drawing on her extensive experience, Julia left me with a few key ideas which will be really helpful in moving our organisation to the next stage.
