The challenge
Social ventures don't always receive the funding or practical support they need to scale.
Our approach
We invested in Ananda Ventures, an established player in the European venture capital space with a clear social mission.
The fund
The Fund invests into businesses at seed, pre-series A and series A stage that have social impact embedded into their business model. As the organisations grow, so does their impact.
Portfolio companies will focus on educational technology, health and employment to support children and young people, ageing population and people with disabilities.
This is a pan-European fund, with a third of the Fund intended for investment in UK-based social impact businesses.
