About Mustard Seed
Mustard Seed enables the creation and evolution of world-class businesses that generate positive and sustainable outcomes. They believe that solving big social and environmental problems drives commercial success in the long run. They seek scalable solutions to gaps currently left unfilled by government and industry in the areas of economic inclusion, education, environmental sustainability, health, and family and community. Mustard Seed invests in and incubates socially and environmentally impactful start-ups. They connect a dynamic and influential network of global members with exceptional entrepreneurial talent across the world. They also develop bespoke impact measurement frameworks and support established companies to align profit and impact through tailored strategies and effective deployment of their resources. Mustard Seed was co-founded by Alex Pitt and Henry Wigan, first classmates at the London School of Economics and later colleagues at Goldman Sachs. In 2013 Henry and Alex observed a rising appetite for socially-minded entrepreneurship among the world’s most talented graduates. They also observed a critical lack of capital to adequately meet this need. They started Mustard Seed to bridge the gap.
