We are happy to be back at the ChangeNOW summit in Paris! 🌍 🫶 Because yes – rethinking ownership structures can be a huge #gamechanger when striving for economic change and a transformation towards an economy fit for the 21st century. 💬 Today, Maike Kauffmann, Co-Lead of the Purpose Foundation and  Christian Sigmund, co-founder of the Purpose Company WILDPLASTIC®, have talked with Sabine Flechet of Masawa, Astrid Leyssens of We Are Impact Collective, and Patrick Knodel of the knodel foundation have talked about alternative forms of ownership like #StewardOwnership – and alternative ways of financing that fit the needs and structures of steward-owned companies. 💡 Let's show the world that conventional #venturecapital models are not the only way to go. Investing is in fact possible without voting rights participation and exit scenarios – including fair and adequate returns for investors and a relationship on eye level. Beautiful examples like WILDPLASTIC® and Vyld have shown how it can work. We’ll be back on this as soon as the panel will be available to watch online 🙌 #ChangeNowSummit #ImpactPioneers #PurposeEconomy #StewardOwnership

#Agtech gets trapped in a corner. Lots of people in our network probably think we’re doing too much at Merge Impact >> we’re doing exactly what’s needed and no more than that. Our job at Merge is much different than most agtech companies. We spent our careers in #Food & #Agriculture working on the land, working with the land, helping build food systems, helping tell stories of better production systems creating better food options. It’s complicated. There’s a large void of services missing from the #valuechain experience. Our point >>> You can do more than you’re doing to help reach the climate goals of the producers. And you can do it in a way that engages all stakeholders for benefit. Want to learn more? www.mergeimpact.com Want to invest directly into acres on your supply chain?
