Investors want to see their investment do more than just generate a return.

Investors want to see the impact scale up.

The startup meets the individual investor’s philanthropic mission.

Investors have impact objectives they want to achieve.

The startup needs mentorship.

Investors want to share their experience with startups.

The startup diversifies the investor’s portfolio.

Investors want to broaden their portfolios for investment reasons.
