🎙️ Untangling Climate Finance: Building a Culture of Doing Good with Ignacio Barriendos Hoppichler

“People will act in a responsible way if they understand how this affects them on a personal level.”

– Ignacio Barriendos Hoppichler

Something a little different this month on Untangling Climate Finance!

In every episode of Untangling Climate Finance, we dig into the capital side of the climate transition…the markets, the mechanisms, the money. And all of that matters enormously!

But this month, Jay sits down with Ignacio Barriendos Hoppichler, CEO and Founder of DoGood People, to zoom in on something that doesn’t get nearly enough attention – the people actually executing these strategies every single day.

Ignacio and Jay discuss: 

✅ Why employee engagement is one of the most underleveraged levers in the climate transition 

✅ How DoGood People works with global enterprises like Amazon Web Services, Mastercard, and Victoria’s Secret to turn sustainability strategies into daily human action 

✅ Why a disengaged workforce is a bigger threat to ESG commitments than a bad sustainability report 

✅ What it takes to build a genuine culture of doing good from the inside out 

✅ How DoGood is expanding globally, including a newly launched program with KPMG Canada

Capital without culture doesn’t scale. This episode is about closing that gap.

Gordian Knot Strategies 

We are Igniting Climate Solutions: Mobilizing $1 Billion Per Year in Impact Investment by 2030!

At Gordian Knot Strategies, our goal is to help mobilize $1 billion per year in climate finance. That is why we’re committed to making climate finance smarter and faster by addressing a broken impact investing screening process. That’s why we built Traro®, a predictive analytics platform designed to help investors rapidly triage opportunities with clarity, consistency, and confidence.

We recently hosted a live webinar focused on leveraging Traro® for more effective impact investing screening. If you weren’t able to attend, the recording link can be found here.

For those interested in further exploring these best practices, a free guide is available – Smarter Climate Investing: 7 Strategic Filters Before Your First Impact Dollar – which distills actionable lessons learned for screening climate projects using seven essential criteria.

If your organization is interested in seeing Traro® in action, we’d love to show you how it works. Email us at traro@gordianknotstrategies.com. There’s no cost to access the guide or the demo. Our goal is to equip more investors with tools that unlock real climate impact.

Seeking Impact Investment? Submit your project to Traro®!

We invite project developers to submit their projects for screening on the Traro® Platform at no cost. Based on assessment outcomes, we can match you with interested impact investors (there is no fee).

You can find more information and how to create an account on Traro® here.

We’re building a global database of impact investors to help mobilize $1 billion annually in climate finance by 2030. If your organization is interested in funding climate or environmental projects, we invite you to fill out our Impact Investor Information Form. Your contact details will remain confidential, and we’ll only connect you with aligned opportunities. There is no fee to participate.
