15 Years of Impact - Taking Stock and Looking Ahead

Marking EVPA's 15th anniversary, this report takes stock of the situation of the impact ecosystem to identify the way forward for investors for impact. We zoom in on specific European regions, looking at the key policy initiatives aimed at boosting the sector. We focus on the developments related to the three core practices of venture philanthropy (i.e. impact measurement and management, non-financial support and tailored financing), and we look into key capital providers, their role, main challenges, and opportunities in the sector. We also present the “Charter of investors for impact”, a document that sets out ten principles that define and drive investors for impact. We invite you to have a look and sign the Charter to endorse these principles! In our Roadmap for investors for impact we identify the key actions for investors for impact to gain recognition as the market builders in the impact ecosystem and become the drivers of syst systemic change towards a sustainable and more inclusive future.
