Sustainable Investor and Company Directory
Public Release - September 2020
ONE WORLD has built a Directory of early-stage and sustainable startups, angel investors and VC funds that support Impact deals. This directory is designed to answer three questions:
Who are the mission-driven startups?
Who are the socially-minded investors?
What investors have invested in which startups?
The accessibility of information on “emerging” social startups and investor activity is limited. This adds to the challenges for both entrepreneurs seeking capital, as well as investors seeking a comprehensive view of the opportunities.
We are aware of existing efforts to identify similar information by other entities, and it is our hope that our efforts can further the work of existing sources, and benefit the entire ecosystem. Our goal is to create an open-sourced directory that is freely available that encourages broad participation, and remains up to date.
