Impact Experience’s Post

🌍 Exciting News! 💡 We are thrilled to unveil our latest video highlighting a recent Impact Engagement we facilitated with our partner Illumen Capital in Montgomery, Alabama, this past February. The collaboration brought together founders, social impact entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, fund managers, educators, and activists to discuss solutions and open up more conversations around unlocking capital for communities of color. One of the key topics highlighted was the stark reality that the higher the performance of women and people of color, the more biases they face. The group committed to address these biases and aim to identify and invest in overlooked and underestimated entrepreneurs. We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated and our guest provocateur Paula Pretlow, Eric Dozier, Eileen Tanghal, Noramay Cadena, Rafa de la Guia, Kim MacQueen, Julian MacQueen, Wayee Chu, Anna Blanding, Vishal Vasishth, Andrea Bogarin, Michael Palank, Richard Milikan, Marlene Milikan, Arnold Perkins, Karen Perkins, Justin Williams, M.S., Serena R., Sydney Paige Thomas, Summer B., and Thomas Van Dyck, CIMA®. Your support in changing the social and economic landscape of who manages, or accesses capital is deeply appreciated. Lastly, a heartfelt appreciation to our amazing co-facilitators and leaders at Impact Experience and Illumen Capital: Olabayo Allen-Taylor, MBA, Yejide Olutosin, MBA , Robin van der Vegt, Dania Sutton (she/her), Jenna Anita Nicholas, Daryn Dodson, Octavio Sandoval, CFA, CAIA, Leila Mengesha, Jo Nazareth, and Malia H.. #impactinvesting #entrepreneurship #impactexperience YouTube Link: https://lnkd.in/ge_NuCTN

✨ We extend our gratitude to all the attendees and speakers for being a part of "Unlock social & financial returns: Impact Investing for Angel Investors" Event hosted by Impact Investors Council & LetsVenture. Incase you missed the event, here is a few highlights from the event: - Launch of the "Impactful Angel Investing: Aligning Profit and Purpose" Course. Enroll now to avail a 30% discount: https://lnkd.in/dJ5q4M3D - Fireside Chat with Guneet Banga, The Caravel Group & Leena Dandekar, Raintree Family Office, moderated by Syna Dehnugara, trica "We are borrowing from the future, you can look at the affects of #climatechange. I got into the #impinv segment to give back to the future with interest" - Guneet "Impact evaluation happens at the time of entering a deal and continues throughout the time we invest. At the time of exit, it is more of financial returns while impact is more of a lifestyle that investors must track throughout the time." - Leena - Panel Discussion on "Impact investing to empower change and wealth creation" moderated by Nakul Saxena, LetsVenture with panelists, Aniket Doegar, Haqdarshak, Nagaraja (Naga) Prakasam, and Prabhir Correa, Waterfield Advisors. "The definition of impact has shifted from focusing on just lower income groups to now expanding to cover environment too." - Nagaraja "Today, there are a lot more audience, opportunities, conversations with family offices and funds when it comes to capital in India. However, the regulatory frameworks remain the same" - Aniket "There is a misconception of #Impact being associated with just doing good. I hope this course highlights #impinv as the way of investing that provides financial returns in addition to #SocialImpact" - Prabhir 🌍 Thank you once again for joining us. Let us continue to pave the way for a habitable and inclusive world. Stay tuned for more impactful initiatives! #impactinvesting #angelinvestors #angelinvesting #hni #investment #funding

"We're a purpose-driven investment organisation. Our purpose is to fight climate change. We will not help you make money; we'll help you fight climate change. If we are successful— as successful we must be because climate change is not waiting for us— I’m pleased to say you will make money. But that's not our purpose; our purpose is to fight climate change." Welcome to our new Investor Spotlight Series! Conceived for the benefit of readers who lead startups in climate-related fields, the Investor Spotlight Series explores the strategies, philosophies, and criteria that investors use when they consider organisations they'd like to finance. For the inaugural interview in the series, we had the great pleasure of speaking with Nick Lyth, president and founder of Green Angel Ventures. Green Angel Ventures is an investor firm in the UK focusing directly in fields in which its members have real knowledge: typically sectors of the energy market, food and agriculture, water, and waste and recycling. The conversation covered a wide range of investment topics, and we're sure Nick's perspective will be helpful to a great many people in our audience. Please see the link in the comments below. And remember: if you like the interview, share it with anyone you think it might be relevant to! From all of us at Brighter Future, we thank Nick Lyth enormously for his time, and wish him the greatest possible continued success in his (already quite successful!) investing firm. Have a great day everyone, and see you with a new Investor Spotlight next week! #investorspotlight #seekthechange #climate #investing #climatefinance
