Ashley Insight was founded in April 2011 by Caroline Ashley. The focus of much of the company’s work has been on business models and economic models that drive socially-inclusive, equitable and sustainable development. Or to put it ambitiously, creating Capitalism 2.0.
The experience of Founder and Director, Caroline Ashley has included pioneering work on business model innovation, sustainable rural livelihoods, equitable natural resource management, women’s economic empowerment, and climate action. Caroline is an experienced leader, systems-thinker and change-maker and she is an international expert on the responsibility of the private sector in international development and climate action. A socio-economist by background, her work for economic justice and climate justice has straddled roles in non-profit organisations, policy research, business innovation, consultancy, and community development in Africa, Asia, Europe and the US. In addition to work focused on companies and investment, she has also worked ‘under the tree’ with communities in Africa and Asia, and with policy-makers in multiple countries. Aside from the work as Ashley Insight, Caroline has worked for Oxfam GB, Forum for the Future, the Overseas Development Institute, Namibian Government, US Congress, UK Parliament, and now runs SteelWatch, the first international climate campaign organisation focused on transformation of the iron and steel sector.
