About this grant

The page describes a 'Growth capital to turn impact vision into velocity' offering for founders reshaping industries, and frames the fund around two thematic areas: People Power (social cohesion through wellbeing, education and inclusion) and Planet Paradise (net zero transitions in energy, industry and agrifood). The fund positions itself as a long-term partner, offering experience 'on call 24/7' while founders remain in control of their businesses. It states that 100% of its performance fees are linked to externally validated, quantifiable impact targets, and reports 40 active investments, USD 250M in assets under management and 58 impact KPIs monitored.
