Finance Forum Mini Series: Is the future of finance human? With Victoria Gillespie
Description
Can finance save the world?
It sounds like a ridiculous question—until you hear Victoria Gillespie answer it. A seasoned finance leader working at the intersection of sustainability and investment, Victoria joins Work is Weird Now as part of our Finance Forum 2025 series.
Ahead of her October session in London, Victoria unpacks why finance might be the only function that touches everything needed to make sustainability real: from fair tax and ethical procurement to transparent reporting and measurable impact.
In this episode, she explains:
- Why finance is the “system of truth” across the business
- How to cut through ESG jargon and anchor to what matters
- Practical ways SMEs can start (without getting lost in acronyms)
- Why transparency beats greenwashing every time
Finance alone can’t save the world—but with its unique powers of accountability, metrics, and incentives, it can provide the scaffolding for change.
