Very flattered to be asked to share my thoughts on the funding gap for private companies, specifically those driving positive impact as they scale up.

I'm really excited to be writing this post recognizing, of all folks, Chambers and Partners, the legal ratings guide. Considered by many to be *the* authority, they have been recognizing the leading law firms and lawyers in just about every field of law since 1990. This year, for the very first time, they ranked #impact #investing as its own distinct practice category. This is an incredibly important #milestone if we are going to move to a future where "impact investing" simply becomes "investing" - ie the idea that all investments take a long-term, value-added approach, where the investment's performance is measured in terms of its effect on a broad array of stakeholders, and where both the financial and non-financial value created are recognized, accounted for, and built into the idea of "success". I believe #Lawyers, as well as other players within the economic ecosystem, are essential to making this #vision a #reality. A huge congratulations to Chambers & Partners for recognizing excellence in the field of impact investing, and the work of an ever-growing community of brilliant and visionary lawyers - many of whom Chambers haven’t yet heard of 😉. https://lnkd.in/eHKK733p

As Sefa gears up for the Impact Investment Summit Asia Pacific in #sydney, we're excited to delve into the key factors for successful capital raising. Our CEO, Hanna Ebeling, will join the "Dollars and Sense - An Unfiltered Look at Capital Raising Journeys" panel to share her expertise on this critical topic. Capital is a vital tool for purpose-driven businesses, but it's not just about securing funds. It's about preparing your organisation to take on investment for sustainable growth and integrating capital as a tool with operational strategies once received. Join us at the Summit on 20-21 March to further explore how we can collectively drive impact investment mainstream, creating a more equitable and diverse economy. How can we, as a community, leverage capital as a force for good? 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gyVjD6pN #socialenterprise #forpurpose #purposedriven #socialfinance
