The Future of Meaningful Finance
Venture philanthropy and impact investing are two concepts at the forefront of transforming our world. Through a strategic combination of philanthropy and investment, resources are being leveraged to create positive societal change. Venture philanthropy is rooted in the notion of strategic giving. By strategically allocating philanthropy dollars, enterprises can fuel social missions, increase access to resources, and empower the people they serve. With a focus on accountability and results, venture philanthropy uses data to drive its decisions and investments. Impact investing plays an equally important role in transforming our world. Through impact investments, capital is allocated to businesses and organizations with the aim of creating social change as well as financial returns. This can take the form of investments in companies creating sustainable energy solutions, social enterprises tackling climate change, or organizations focusing on healthcare for underserved populations.
