Impact Engine Description
Impact Engine was established in 2012 as an accelerator fund. Its goal was to identify promising entrepreneurs who are starting businesses that can generate both positive social impact and attractive financial returns. In 2013, Impact Engine raised two additional accelerator funds. These funds were all focused on investing pre-seed stage businesses. Impact Engine invested in 23 companies across the three accelerator funds. Our mission is to increase capital in a market where financial returns can be linked to positive social or environmental impacts. We manage funds for individuals and institutions that invest in positive-impact, for-profit businesses in private markets. We also bring people together to help build the impact investing industry. We are an investment company with the mission of bringing more capital to a market that has positive social and environmental impacts.
