Investing

Our goal is to scale up social enterprises’ social impact through investment and operational consultancy.

Our fund set up is similar to commercial VC and PE, with common forms of investment including equity, loans and convertibles. Return of investment will be re-invested on social enterprises.

Our vision is that in many cases philanthropy fund can be leveraged therefore producing a bigger social impact, and social ventures can achieve a deeper impact than NGOs.
