Established in 2015, PurpleSpace arrived when disability Employee Resource Groups (ERG)/Networks were starting to come into their own.

Our mission is to super-charge the ability of organisations and individuals to build disability confidence ‘from the inside out’ by offering a world-class methodology to support the creation and sustainability of disability ERGs. We predicted that by doing so we would enable organisations to increase the pace of change in building inclusive workplaces and workplace culture. 

To coincide with our refreshed strategy to accelerate the pace of change and enable organisations to evolve from traditional top-down approaches to disability inclusion, PurpleSpace launched the ‘Futurists’, a new select membership category of companies choosing to invest in PurpleSpace’s capacity to expand the global growth of disability ERGs.

Futurists have membership to an innovation hub that will establish the global, universal standards in how to create and sustain high impact, high return disability ERGs.

In addition, Futurist membership builds on the practical benefits of Core Membership by enabling access to on-going strategic advice from a Senior Futurist Coach. 

Futurists:

• contribute to the creation and development of a shared knowledge hub and repository of information, learning and development so that PurpleSpace can cascade the intellectual assets more widely.
• know that investing in an employee-led model of disability inclusion is an effective way to meet their ESG commitments and Sustainable Development Goals. 
• choose to invest in their own home-grown change agents, because they know they want their organisation to succeed. 
• understand that the ONLY way to build disability confidence is from the inside out.
