Global Optimism is a purpose driven enterprise focused on social and environmental change. 

Global Optimism exists to precipitate a transformation from pessimism to optimism as a method of creating social and environmental change.

They do this via three main routes.

The first is by launching initiatives either by themselves or in partnership to achieve specific outcomes they see as important. To date, Global Optimism has launched three initiatives; Mission 2020, Profiles of Paris and Future Stewards. These projects are run independently with their support.

The second route is via engagements with key organisations whose success they regard as vital. They currently have 12 engagements where they hold advisory, board or executive positions.

The third route is via periodic campaigns and media engagements that may either be public or behind the scenes.
