Business Sphere
Support, action & networking for people working in business, consulting and finance.
We're working together to reimagine the world of business.
Right now, all sorts of things are wrong with business, finance and the global economy. However, we believe that God has a redemptive vision, and are convinced that business and entrepreneurship have a powerful part to play in the flourishing of both people and planet.
What We Do
As the Just Love Business Sphere, we support each other in our work, imagine how business might look different in the future, and incubate new projects and ideas. We run:
Socials and networking spaces.
Semi-regular workshops learning from each other and from experts.
A WhatsApp group to share ideas, questions, advice and prayer requests.
We've also been involved in incubating Bank Well, a Just Love Project seeking to secure ethical banking commitments from 100 high-wealth, high-influence churches.
We're excited to seed new projects, campaigns, social enterprises, and resources in the future.
Events
What’s coming up…
It's shaping up to be an exciting year ahead in the Just Love Business Sphere. Workshops, networking events and learning spaces are in the pipeline, including on some of the following topics:
Getting ESG right - Exploring social impact investing.
Inside/Outside - Can we change the values and impact of big business more effectively from the inside or outside?
Exploring Degrowth - Do economies need to grow?
The Business Sphere is open to anyone with an interest in business, social enterprise, finance and related fields. You don't necessarily need to be working in business right now, just have a passion. Come along and join the community!

About Us
The Just Love Business Sphere exists to support those who love justice and feel called to the world of business.
We aim to encourage:
1. Bold integrity as we look to transform our workplaces with gospel-led lives and infuse Kingdom values
2. Refusal to compromise principles for selfish-ambition and always choose the sustainable/ethical option instead
3. Stewardship of position and influence under the knowledge that we are only there by God’s grace.
We also want to learn how we can earn to give well, be relentlessly generous and view money in a godly way.
