About Design for Good: How a startup helps to get fit while doing good with Ivo Gormley, Founder of GoodGym
How to build and scale a business that brings together physical exercise and social good
Interview with Ivo Gormley, Founder of GoodGym, on how he built and scaled GoodGym into a national movement that helps make cities greener, less lonely, and better connected. GoodGym is a platform that connects runners, walkers, and cyclists with physical tasks which benefit their community. They have 25,000 active members completing over 390,000 tasks and community projects across 60 cities. Ivo built GoodGym into a financially sustainable organisation without compromising its mission. Local authorities and the NHS now commission GoodGym directly, paying to bring it into new areas, which is proof that social good, when designed well, can become a product people and institutions actively pay for. How do you design a product where the social impact is the value proposition? And how do you scale it without losing the human connection at its heart? Join us for a live conversation with Ivo to find out. We will discuss: How noticing "this could be better" can become the starting point for a scalable organisation Which design and leadership decisions took GoodGym from one runner in Hackney to 60 cities across the UK What it takes to lead an organisation whose core product is human connection How making “doing good” fun and accessible drove GoodGym's growth The event is for: Creative Directors, Heads of Design, Architects and Founders.
