Game Changers with Orange Sky Australia
Join Lucas Patchett OAM and Nic Marchesi OAM from Orange Sky Australia as they share their experiences and achievements since founding their social enterprise. What started as an idea to improve hygiene standards and restore dignity to people doing it tough has evolved into something much bigger and more powerful. Hear from the co-founders about why innovation, change, sustainability, collaborative partnerships, and resilient revenue are integral to affecting positive social impact. About the speakers Lucas Patchett OAM is the Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Orange Sky - the world's first free mobile laundry and shower service for people experiencing homelessness. Lucas plays a critical role in all areas of Orange Sky from the strategic direction to managing key relationships with our supporters. Nicholas Marchesi OAM is the Co-Founder and Chief Delta Officer (CDO) of Orange Sky. As CDO Nic plays a key role in ensuring that innovation is at the forefront of our evolution, leads our technical function, is a key player in our supporter strategy and plays a critical role in managing our strategic direction as a member of the Senior Leadership Team. Ideas can come from anywhere; for us, the key to moving forward is how to take it from an idea into action and give it the time and space to grow and mature to drive impact.
