- Market these portfolios to mid-sized foundations and high-net-worth individuals to attract funding and investments.

The fund is backed by experienced managers and aims to succeed by being the first institutional capital provider focused on the social enterprise space.

Impact investing aims to generate financial returns while solving social or environmental challenges by investing in small- and medium-sized enterprises that offer innovative but high-risk solutions, providing them with flexible, patient funding and support beyond what traditional sources offer; examples include the Low Carbon Enterprise Fund which invests in global businesses reducing carbon emissions. However, impact funds also face limitations in their ability to support entrepreneurs and achieve scale due to constraints of their market-based approach, focus on commercial returns alongside impact, and limited capital and expertise.
