ReGenerate

What ReGenerate does

ReGenerate Trust is a UK-registered independent charity (charity number 1191234, company number 12346123) headquartered in London at Fivefields, 8-10 Grosvenor Gardens. It describes itself as pioneering business solutions to the UK's biggest social and environmental challenges and positions itself at the intersection of government policy and corporate practice. Its core activity is producing evidence-based research, policy frameworks, and convening initiatives that connect senior leaders across government and large UK corporates to advance purpose-driven business outcomes. Sub-brands include The Good Jobs Project (focused on quality employment and hidden talent) and the Good Business Council (a senior-leader convening body). Named flagship outputs include the Partnering for Mission Delivery report (consulted 40+ organizations), the Five-Stage Framework for Employing Hidden Talent (developed with 20+ organizations including Amazon, Iceland, Toyota GB, Severn Trent, Greene King), the Good Development Blueprint (built-environment research with 20+ partners including The Crown Estate, Landsec, and Muse), and Early Childhood Nutrition research on supermarket practices.

The organization's offerings are intellectual products — freely distributed reports, frameworks, and policy papers — rather than software or fee-based services. Distribution is through direct stakeholder engagement, digital publication downloads from re-generate.org and goodjobsproject.co.uk, The Purpose Digest newsletter, LinkedIn, and events. Its funding model is grants, donations, and partnership contributions; no commercial pricing, subscription tiers, or product sales are disclosed. Active programmatic areas span inclusive employment, economic inactivity (in partnership with DWP and the West Midlands Combined Authority), purpose-driven development, just energy transition, early childhood development, and employer alliances, supported by an ecosystem of named partners across retail, hospitality, utilities, automotive, real estate, construction, and government.

ReGenerate is governed by Co-Founder and Chair Matt Isaacs and a senior team led by Ed Boyd (primary contact). The organization reports 1–10 employees, operates exclusively within the United Kingdom, and has no disclosed funding rounds, parent entity, subsidiaries, or M&A activity. Its competitive position rests on convening authority and cross-sector trust rather than proprietary technology or contracted revenue.
