Some aspirational companies and corporate foundations are increasingly looking for opportunities to pursue more holistic impact approaches. They have started to set up new organisations like impact funds, accelerators, or corporate social businesses that can complement their work, combining social impact with financial objectives.

In recent research, EVPA has outlined three ways in which companies with multiple corporate social investors can work together to broaden their impact on society, scale the impact of promising societal solutions, or deepen their impact on a particular community.

Watch the recording of this webinar to hear from pioneering organisations how they are combining different financial instruments, investment strategies and organisation types to take their impact to the next level.
