A well-known challenge: only 2.4% of VC investment goes to startups founded solely by women; only 1.3% to Black founders. I’m supporting a @MITSloan project to address this. Please like, RT, or DM if you agree that this is a disparity we must resolve, or to share your thoughts.

Op-ed by @algore David Blood in @WSJ => #ESG Investing Is Consistent With Fiduciary Duty. It’s not an end in itself. It’s simply an analytical tool that investors would be smart to make use of. #impinv

Great piece by @hbuffett that explores how investors can identify impactful companies to invest in that go beyond the standard CSR. A great place to start is by seeking out organizations that not only report but act. #ImpactInvesting

Investors who want to support impactful businesses—ones that operate with sound social and environmental policies and embrace positive innovation and disruption—just have to know where to look.

As private companies make up “more than 40% of the U.S. economy,” according to @FortuneMagazine they are key in creating actionable ESG change. With more freedom than public co's, private co's can take the lead in adopting new leadership and measurement approaches. cc: @Inari_Ag
