Impact Economy
Building the Impact Economy: Funding Innovation, driving
Scale
Official launch of Impact Economy in Argentina on 18 November
2011.
"Stakeholders increasingly want “value with values”: a new
economic paradigm of sustainability capitalism based on convergence
of the sectors is in the making. Analogously, over the past
decades, the concepts of business have transformed what was
traditionally the non-market space: civil society and philanthropy
are now undergoing their own “market revolution”. As a result,
there is great enthusiasm for
impact investing and social finance. There are numerous market
entrants and large market estimates of up to one trillion US
dollars in impact investing potential unfolding over the 2010s. At
Impact Economy, our mission is to enable organizations and
individuals to position themselves vis-à-vis this historical trend,
and deliver on it."
