As impact investors, we believe it’s important to learn from others and share what we’re up to. We launched The Blue Haven Brief, our quarterly newsletter, this fall. Sign up to receive future issues! #impinv.

Catching up on summer reading? Don’t miss our newsletter, including our founders’ take on the importance of working together across differences and party lines to make progress on shared values and goals.

RT @SSNScholars: "Attacks on university research put at risk one of government's highest-return investments.". In this @Forbes op-ed, SSN B….

Good news: Duke’s resources on raising capital for impact are now free for all: #impinv.

Family offices have an important role to play as long-term investors in these times. Engaging on public policy is key. This and (lots!) more in an informative Q&A Liesel Pritzker Simmons had with @ImpactAlpha . #impinv.

Our principals believe it’s important to identify ideas with broad support & build alliances that drive positive change. They share their thoughts in our summer newsletter, along with initiatives we’re supporting and investments we're making.

Pleased to see the @resilience_vc founding team and its debut fintech fund featured in this piece in @Forbes. The firm focuses on seed-stage companies that assist low-to-moderate income Americans and underserved small businesses. #impinv.

Proud to be in good company as we welcome the Ford, Sorenson Impact, and Surdna foundations to the Catalytic Capital Consortium (C3). Great to see momentum around this community committed to expanding opportunity and economic growth for all.

“Forward-thinking companies aren’t just planning for the next quarter; they’re planning for the next generation by making bold, long-term commitments to environmental action.” On Earth Day, there are some good points made in this piece:

Despite growing pushback on DEI, most companies aren't scaling back. A recent Paradigm study shows 23% of employers surveyed plan to increase DEI funding, while over half aren’t making cuts. Encouraging sign amid the noise.

Catalytic capital isn’t a niche approach. It plays a significant role in driving impact returns and the impact investing strategies for many impact investors. This is one of several interesting takeaways from @ToniicNetwork as part of its T100 project.

“Nobody wanted to go in the water.” Nearly 3 dozen environmental regulations are being targeted, prompting those who remember dirty air and polluted waters before the EPA was established to wonder if that’s our future.
