During yesterday’s Market Open ceremony at the London Stock Exchange, Anthropy celebrated the launch of the UK’s largest shared agenda, to be addressed at the upcoming national gathering: Anthropy25, on 26-28 March. The full Anthropy25 Agenda is now public on the Anthropy website.
LSEG, the London Stock Exchange Group, also joins leading businesses around the UK as an Anthropy member (as Volans already is) and will be participating in the national gathering held at the Eden Project.
And it was wonderful to be invited to join some interesting folk on the balcony of the London Stock Exchange as Anthropology founder John O’Brien opened the market. “While the London Stock Exchange deals in shares and bonds, convening people and capital,” he said, “we at Anthropy deal in something just as valuable. We trade in ideas. We invest in optimism.”
“That is why today marks the launch of the Anthropy25 national Agenda,” he explained, “and I can’t think of a better place to introduce this vision than here, among those who understand what it means to create value. Real value is built in many ways, through financial capital, and also through social capital, cultural capital, natural capital, through the strength of our institutions and the ambition of our people.”
Dame Julia Hoggett, CEO of London Stock Exchange plc, said: “We are delighted to welcome Anthropy to the London Stock Exchange to celebrate the launch of their Anthropy25 Agenda. Working in partnership to shape the future of Britain is a cause that we are fully committed to, ensuring that companies and sovereigns can access the capital they need to finance innovation, growth, jobs, infrastructure and the low-carbon transition.”
