You get the concept of impact investing - merging social impact with financial results, unlocking private capital for social good, generating positive social and financial returns, and so on.
But are you wondering, what exactly are foundations doing when it comes to impact investing? What's the range of efforts out there? How might your foundation take action and where does that fit in the "bell curve"? How do foundation efforts overall map to the larger impact investing ecosystem across sectors?
Benefit from insights provided by Mission Investors Exchange, a national membership association of 230 foundations and mission investing organizations. Hear from philanthropy leaders who will share what their foundations are doing and where that puts them within the impact investing continuum among funders and beyond.
Explore:
- The impact investing ecosystem and where foundations fit within it
- Impact investing lessons from funders that have taken different approaches - some initial and others all in
- Where your foundation might best get started or deepen its impact investing efforts - and where that puts you within the span of what foundations are doing
