The power of values-aligned collaboration to amplify impact
As traditional development funding faces unprecedented pressure, philanthropic impact investing offers a compelling opportunity to tackle systemic challenges. Strategies that deploy philanthropic resources to catalyze funding across the full spectrum of capital benefit from values-aligned collaboration. By partnering with others that bring complementary expertise and financing structures, foundations amplify their impact. This session will highlight success stories from an ecosystem perspective.
Framing
This section provides context for the event to ensure all participants, regardless of prior knowledge, are equipped to engage with the discussion.
We believe that impact ventures require tailored financing aligned with their needs, development stages, and business models. We recognize the importance of providing a continuum of capital to support high-impact ideas as they mature into stable, scalable companies with impact at the core of the business model. We also believe that partnerships between grant makers and philanthropic impact investors can serve as a model demonstrating, how philanthropic capital can be deployed and facilitate unlocking further capital. This session will spotlight select examples, while inviting participants to share their experience. Impact Europe will offer a cross-sectoral perspective to complement the topic.
