Where capital and sustainability meet.

  • Stefan has accompanied Dreilinden gGmbH for years. We co-designed and implemented our impact investing strategy with an LGBTQIA* lens from scratch. Today, all our investments are closely aligned with our human rights mission and use blended finance solutions to accelerate systems change. For me, this is what impact investing is all about.

    - Ise Bosch, CEO & Founder Dreilinden gGmbH

  • "I have been collaborating with Impact Advisors on various smart capital projects. The approach of making use of the whole financial toolbox, from philanthropy to investments, really makes a difference. It's a joy working together!"

    – Dedo N. Baranshamaje, Director of Strategy at Segal Family Foundation

  • “We developed a completely new investment approach to diversity, equity and inclusion. It’s been great fun and we look forward to continuing our partnership!”

    - Karla Gallardo, CEO of Viwala
