About Founder | LinkedIn |

For over 12 years, Larissa worked with organization processes at a big economic business group. Following that experience, she decided to transition to help companies become sustainable and profitable, while making strategic positive impacts on the world and in their business. She pursued an MBA in Social Innovation Management in Nairobi, Kenya and went on to consult with companies looking to execute their environmental, social, and governance goals. Larissa then went on to launch SIB (Sustainable Innovation Business) Impact. It started off as a board game that was used to educate organizations on how they could create innovative solutions to solve the world's biggest challenges and incorporate them into their business's strategies. After a year and a half of planning, the digital version will finally launch on December 12th!
