We’re excited that Flequity Ventures has been engaged to research and write two more reports in our groundbreaking #designedtodisrupt series which provides industry blueprints to disrupt domestic and financial abuse through better product and service design. This time we’ll explore the ways water and energy services are weaponised by abusers. We’ll draw on insights from people who have experience domestic and financial abuse and project partners Thriving Communities Partnership (TCP) Safe and Equal Centre for Women's Economic Safety. And we’ll make recommendations for individual companies, industry and regulators to improve financial safety. Our reports will inform the development of tools and resources for Australian water and energy businesses. Thanks to Essential Services Commission for instigating this important project. And thanks to eSafety Commissioner for #safetybydesign. We tailor the approach for other sectors, helping to identify the risks of misuse of products and services in the context of domestic and family violence and changes that can be made to provide better protection for victims survivors. #financialabuse Kate Symons Julie Inman - Grant Ciara Sterling Tania Farha Rebecca Glenn Micaela Cronin Hannah Tonkin https://lnkd.in/dQbyxQqj

In late January, Governor Josh Shapiro unveiled a 10-Year Economic Development Strategy for the Commonwealth that highlighted the significant need for sites to support the expansion of existing PA businesses and to attract major new investment. This priority was further elevated in the Governor's proposed budget. Site availability and readiness also ties to the important focus on making it easier to do business in, and with, the Commonwealth. The Office of Transformation & Opportunity is demonstrating that real progress can be made through its efforts to reduce permitting times. Site readiness and a focus on ease of doing business with the Commonwealth are key areas to strengthen our economic competitiveness. #Pennsylvania #Commonwealth #economicdevelopment #sitedevelopment #easeofdoingbusiness #economiccompetitiveness
