In this episode of Change Loves Company, Dominique sits down with Adam Verwey, a pioneer in ethical investment and one of Australia’s most influential voices reshaping how money creates impact.

For more than two decades, Adam has worked at the intersection of capital, climate, and social justice. As the co-founder of Future Super and an early director of the Australasian Centre for Corporate Responsibility (ACCR), Adam helped shift Australia’s $4 trillion superannuation industry towards climate-aware investing and set a new standard for shareholder advocacy in corporate boardrooms.

Now, as the co-founder of Six, Australia’s first fintech to blend ethical investing with collective activism, Adam is taking things even further. Six empowers everyday investors to align their portfolios with their values and join coordinated shareholder actions that pressure major companies to lift their game on climate, nature, labour rights, and inequality.

In today’s conversation, Adam and Dominique explore:

• How a simple switch in his own super fund sparked a 20-year career in ethical finance
• Why young people today have more power than ever to influence corporate behaviour
• The surprising tipping points that have triggered major shifts—from just 14 people coordinating to push a super fund to divest
• How Six works, and why combining investing with activism unlocks a new frontier of impact
• Recent campaigns targeting deforestation, animal welfare, and nature protection—with Woolworths, Webjet, CSL and more
• The role of collective action in building a better future, one shareholder vote at a time

This episode is a powerful reminder that money is a tool, and in the right hands, it can drive change faster and more effectively than most people realise.

In this episode, Dominique sits down with Rebecca Linigin, the Australian Director of For Paws, a global animal welfare organization dedicated to revealing suffering, rescuing animals, and advocating for stronger protections. Rebecca shares her lifelong commitment to animal welfare, her experience across advocacy, fundraising, and organisational development, and her insights into how technology—like AI and data science—can be harnessed ethically for social good.

The conversation covers the challenges facing animal charities in Australia, the impact of emerging technologies, behavioural changes in pets post-COVID, and the importance of ethical storytelling. Rebecca also reflects on her personal journey, the motivations that keep her driving change, and advice for anyone wanting to make a meaningful impact in animal welfare.

Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of how passion, people power, and innovation intersect to protect animals and amplify positive change. Tune in for inspiration, practical insights, and a reminder that even small acts can create big ripples.
