Empowering investors to make a difference through Impact Investing
Impact Hub Berlin’s Impact Investor Community enables entrepreneurs to solve societal issues through the power of business.
These entrepreneurs understand the biggest social and environmental challenges of our time.
But see them also as opportunities.
And create innovative business models to help solve them.
Once the “first love” money is through and investment is required to grow, strong partnerships are needed.
The Impact Investor Community bridges a gap that many entrepreneurs in Germany face: the dreaded “Valley of Death”.
With the Impact Investor Community, we’re gathering a group of people ready not only to invest their money but to partner with entrepreneurs to jointly tackle the grand challenges of today and tomorrow.
This first edition of the Impact Investor Community is made possible by Bethmann Bank.
Join our launch event
Our Investors Circle: “Money Meets Mission” on Thursday 27th August 2020 is the first in an event series powered by Bethmann Bank.
At the event, investors will meet tech entrepreneurs in the field of education and health. Sign up before 27th July.
We're looking for investors
