The Growth Project UK
Separate Entity, Shared PurposeLarry and Paul go back over 20 years to the time when Larry and Felice were living in London. The seed was planted when Larry shared with Paul his vision for proliferating The Growth Project outside Australia, during a flying visit to London in 2016.
Fast forward to 2018, Paul was ready to take up the challenge, but needed someone to share the responsibility and the heavy lifting that lay ahead. Nicole agreed to become a founding partner of The Growth Project UK and the call was made to Larry, who answered
the phone with the immortal line: “Paul! I’ve been expecting you!”

The Growth Project
The Growth Project is a non-profit organisation that supported small, successful charities to maximise their impact on the world.
We delivered this through an innovative personal development program that brought together charity and business leaders in an environment of shared learning. Throughout the 12-month course, participants shared knowledge and experiences, learnt how to run more effective and efficient organisations and developed their leadership skills.
The Growth Project is an ACNC registered charity.
We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of country throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
By helping those who help, we have created connections and ripples of impact that will endure well beyond The Growth Project.
