Changemakers: Louise Hill, Co-Founder of Go Henry
15th July 2026, 18:00 - 20:30, Virgin HQ in Central London
The Best Ideas Solve Problems Close to Home
Join Louise Hill, co-founder of GoHenry, for an honest conversation about turning a personal challenge into a business that has helped millions of families build confidence with money.
When Louise Hill realised her own children needed a better way to learn how to manage money in an increasingly digital world, she saw a problem that millions of other families were facing too. Rather than waiting for someone else to solve it, she helped build GoHenry.
Since launching in 2012, GoHenry has grown into one of the UK's leading fintech success stories, helping more than one million customers across the UK and US develop healthier financial habits and greater confidence with money.
Join us for an intimate Changemaker conversation with Louise as she shares the lessons she's learned from building and scaling a mission-driven business, navigating growth and turning an everyday frustration into meaningful impact. We'll also explore GoHenry's campaign to improve financial education in schools and why empowering the next generation with money skills matters more than ever.
What we'll cover
How identifying a personal challenge led to a scalable business idea
Building a purpose-led company in a fast-changing digital world
Lessons from scaling GoHenry to more than one million customers
Navigating growth, leadership and operational challenges
Why financial education matters and the role businesses can play in driving change

Why attend?
