People with Pens have Power

It is great to see Shared Interest investors getting onto their soapboxes to wax lyrical about the power of social return.  Scanning today’s letters page in the Guardian, we spotted Jake Bachus’ response to an article highlighting the benefits of trade versus aid.  We are always hot on the heels to join this topic of debate since Shared Interest’s key aim is to help enable people to trade their way to a better future.  Big thanks to Jake for speaking out on our behalf and continuing to prove that, not only is the pen is mightier than the sword, but a hand up is better than a hand out.
