LISA ANDREWS – BIOGRAPHY

Lisa has a financial, data and engineering background and is working on ‘How to give everyone a fair start and maximise human potential at each stage throughout life’.

She has dedicated her life to having a positive impact in the world. This currently manifests through 3 main channels:

1. IA Impact Fund – Removing the friction of financial, human and community capital

2. SingularityU Australia – Educating, empowering and inspiring leaders to use exponential technology to solve the world’s grand global challenges

3. Ignite Alliance – Helping aspirational businesses grow.

Lisa strongly believes that we live in a time where there isn’t a problem we have that can’t be solved with technology.

Lisa is currently working on projects with organisations such as Singularity University, the United Nations, ACTAI, the Extreme Tech Challenge, 2030vision.com, EO and many others.

Each of these organisations have a focus on solving the world’s greatest challenges with exponential technologies.

As a future maker and planner, Lisa sees the first step as achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the second step as creating a united vision for the world for the next 100 years, and the third, how we can all have a 10,000 year legacy.

A serial entrepreneur, in 2018 she won the Hunter Outstanding Young Entrepreneur of the Year award. Lisa is a founder /part owner /investor in several companies who all focus on profit with purpose.

In her spare time you’ll find her reading, traveling to exotic locations or kite surfing.
