SOCIAL INVESTMENT VIDEO PRODUCTION
We pride ourselves on being an agency with a deep understanding of the sectors and types of organisations we work with.
Social investment sometimes also known as impact investing is an area of specialty for us. It is a powerful vehicle for good in the world and is a fast-growing segment within the broader investment market.
Social Investment operates on a spectrum from philanthropy on one end to highly commercial returns on the other. The common thread is the investment is made with a view to delivering a social or environmental return in addition to a financial one. This type of investment is growing in popularity amongst savvy investors as it has the power to deliver sustainable financial returns as well as tackle the biggest challenges facing the world today and deliver significant positive social impact.

SOCIAL IMPACT
VIDEO PRODUCTION
Social Impact is at the heart of everything we do at Be Inspired Films. It is the human component of how we see the world.
If positive social impact is important to you too, then we are a perfect match to bring your story to life.
When making any decision, personal or business-related, it is easy to think first of the financial incentive for our companies or the benefit to us personally.
But by also considering the social and environmental impact and responsibility of our decisions, we help create companies that are more equitable and sustainable. This is better for everyone including families, communities, and nations, as well as our company’s workers, supply chains, and operating environments.

SOCIAL ENTERPRISE VIDEO PRODUCTION
When I first heard about social enterprise I was so excited.
Social enterprise promised to solve the challenge of chasing grant funding year after year for projects and initiatives designed to benefit the community.
We were lucky enough to be the film partner for the now legendary OxfordJam unconferences held in Oxford between 2010 and 2014 as a fringe festival to the Skoll World Forum.
So many of the current leaders from the worlds of social investment, social impact, social enterprise, corporate responsibility, and purpose-driven business were there at OxfordJam. It was a melting pot of fresh-faced, optimistic rebels, trailblazers, and dedicated change makers. It brings a huge smile to my face to see so many of us from the OxfordJam days still working hard to make a positive difference in the world across a huge range of agencies and organisations in the UK and worldwide.

PURPOSE-DRIVEN
VIDEO PRODUCTION
I founded Be Inspired Films in Birmingham in 2008 with a very clear purpose - to bring great ideas to life and tell stories that matter using film and video.
The best way to describe what we do is purpose-driven video production or purpose-driven storytelling for individuals and organisations making a positive difference in society. This includes businesses doing great corporate responsibility work and beyond.
When I heard about B Corp in late 2014, as a movement of for-profit businesses acting as a force for good in the world, I was immediately on board with the idea.
Government and philanthropy alone will never be able to effectively tackle the huge social and environmental challenges we face today.
If businesses can play their part by pro-actively aligning themselves with a purpose beyond profit, then a huge positive impact can be made. This approach goes well beyond traditional corporate responsibility to embedding a purpose-driven motive at the heart of the business model.
Hopefully, all businesses in the future will have a reason for existing that is more than just about making money. There is a strong argument to be made that they will need to in order to make sustainable profits over time and attract the best talent.
Be Inspired Films became one of the UK’s Founding B Corps in 2015 and is proud to be the first B Corp video production company in the UK. It has been exciting to see so many more creative agencies join us in the B Corp movement over the years since then.
We are a video production company in Birmingham and London and work extensively throughout the UK. We also take on global projects having filmed on almost every continent.
