JumpStart Speaker Series – Generator’s JumpStart Speaker Series invites founders, makers, and business leaders to talk honestly about what it takes to build something from the ground up. You can expect each conversation to provide real lessons about risk, resilience, and how to create something that lasts. Questions, comments, and community discussion are encouraged at these free, public events.
Innovation at Scale: Growing a Business for Impact!
A conversation with Andrew Savage, a founding team member of Lime, the world’s largest micromobility company with over 1 billion rides across 30+ countries.
Andrew helped build Lime from the ground up and led the team through finding its first markets to going public. Along the way he built Lime’s government relations and sustainability functions from scratch, work that earned him a spot on the TIME100 Climate list and led to Lime being listed as a TIME Most Influential Company and Fast Company “Business that Matters.”
Before Lime, Andrew helped scale solar manufacturer, AllEarth, as Chief Strategy Officer and worked in the U.S. Congress for now Senator Peter Welch. Today he advises impact startups, serves as a Commissioner for the Burlington International Airport, and on the Board of Directors of Vermont’s own, VEIC, all while coaching youth baseball on the side.
Join Andrew and Generator’s Executive Director, Meg Hammond, on Wednesday, October 21st, for a candid Q&A about starting and scaling a business for impact. They’ll cover the risks, the setbacks, and the choices that shaped Lime along the way, plus Andrew’s own path from Burlington to the Bay Area and back.
