Method has redesigned recycling for the modern space to be visible, flexible, beautiful and effective. Method began when co-founders Steven and India Korner continuously saw organisations who wanted to recycle without the tools to be successful. The Korners set out on a three-year journey of research and development to develop a truly human-centred system. The award-winning bins are now helping organisations around the world to recycle more and waste less.

Pathfinder Asset Management is a fund manager focusing investment decisions on people and planet, as well as profit.
Pathfinder believes an ethical investment approach is better for our environment, our society and for long-term investment returns. 

Investing ethically involves a number of steps. This starts with avoiding companies and industries causing harm, but most importantly is a positive focus on where money is invested. Companies with higher environmental, social and governance (ESG) metrics can have a positive impact on our planet and also make better financial investments. Pathfinder’s savings scheme (CareSaver) helps members save for retirement by aligning their ethical beliefs with Pathfinder’s investment expertise. As well as striving for savings to work hard, CareSaver’s social enterprise approach supports a family of 17 charities doing good in the community. 20% of CareSaver management fees are donated to these charities and every CareSaver member has a say in how donations are allocated. The mission is to provide long-term and sustainable income streams to charities with impact.

Pathfinder is a UNPRI signatory and an active member of RIAA.
