In this episode of Impactful Conversations, Shai Kalansky, a San
Diego-based associate in Morrison & Foerster's Social
Enterprise and Impact Investing Group, interviews Scott Jacobs, the
CEO and co-founder of Generate Capital, a leading sustainable
infrastructure platform, delivering affordable, reliable resource
solutions to companies, communities, and cities.
Shai and Scott discuss, among other things, why Scott is focused
on infrastructure as opposed to individual inventions as a means of
changing the productivity equation, and how the elements necessary
to create value in sustainability differ from the elements
necessary to create value in tech.
Scott also discusses what ‘impact' means to him and
Generate Capital, explaining how Generate incorporates purpose into
all aspects of its business resulting in strong impact and
financial returns for both Generate Capital and its clients.
