Illumen Capital remains grateful to be in partnership with Impact Experience. Most recently, we went to Montgomery, AL, where we explored the impact of racial and gender bias in the global financial market and collectively committed to address these issues. Thank you to our investor and fund manager community who joined us on this journey. Together, we can reduce #bias in #investing for all #assetallocators. https://lnkd.in/gN6Y5tPA

Expanding racial and gender equity by reducing bias in the capital markets.
About us
Illumen Capital is an impact fund of funds addressing systemic inequity by reducing racial and gender bias in investing. Working closely with the world’s leading social psychologists at Stanford SPARQ, we combine investment capital with evidence-based tools and training designed to reduce implicit racial and gender bias in order to unlock latent return and multiply impact. We believe an inclusive and optimal asset management industry will be the cornerstone of an equal and equitable future. Less bias. Better returns. One investment.
