Crafting futures with
societal and environmental expertise

We recognize being an impact investor extends beyond financial investments. That's why we provide guidance for the whole impact business process. We use IBMS – a structured, easy-to-use framework catalyzing positive change and ensuring your impact integrates into the core of operations. In addition to running our own IBMS batches for start-ups, we are happy to tailor our program into existing incubator and accelerator programs. We are a licensed IBMS partner.

A good start is to watch the introduction film below.

IBMS ALUMNI TESTIMONIALS

The program has provided us with great coaching and a clear methodology to define our impact business model and operationalize our impact metrics. We now have a solid basis for measuring and communicating about our positive impact. This will continue to help us on our mission to help improve the food system and to mitigate the economic and environmental impact of food production and consumption.
Jukka Hänninen COO and Co-founder – Biovaaka Oy

The training helped us discover new values in our solution and encouraged us to think "out of the box". We were able to build strong impact arguments during the sessions to quantify the impact that we are making in society. With the training, we became more confident in how to communicate our value to the users and encourage them to live longer healthier lives.

An impact goal without quantified outcomes is just a wish.

Let´s create real impact together.
