Investment Universe

Sustainable Impact Capital & Holding invests across the full pre-IPO range, in direct deals and in funds, from a company's first institutional capital to the years before a public listing. A single-LP structure keeps us fast and flexible, so we can meet founders wherever they are and keep impact at the centre of every decision.

Where we invest

The full pre-IPO range

Most investors specialise in a single stage. Sustainable Impact invests across the entire pre-IPO journey, in direct deals and in funds, so we can meet founders wherever they are and stay with them as they scale. Our single-LP structure keeps friction low, letting us move quickly, tailor terms and size each position on conviction rather than to a mandate.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Impact investing means deploying capital with the explicit intention of generating a positive, measurable social or environmental outcome alongside a financial return. The two goals are pursued together, not traded against one another.

Not in our model. We hold every deal to institutional return targets and back companies whose commercial success and positive outcome come from the same source, so growth and impact rise together rather than one being traded for the other.

We anchor impact to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, assessing each company against the specific goals it targets, at investment and over time. Where relevant we align with recognised standards and safeguards, and report progress against the metrics agreed at the start.

ESG is mostly about managing risk: screening out harm and improving how a company operates. Impact investing goes further. The positive outcome is the reason for the investment, not a by-product of it.

Because impact has to clear our diligence before we commit, not be claimed afterwards. Each investment is held to the goals it targets with the same rigour as its financial case, and reported on real results rather than a label.
