The Artha Impact team has been working since 2007 as the impact investing arm of Rianta Capital, which is a dedicated advisory to the Singh Family Trust. Through this initiative, they have been running a series of programs designed to invest, catalyze and convene around the promise of supporting meaningful business interventions for impact in India. Today they hold a robust portfolio of direct early/growth stage investments and a small handful of impact funds in the country. Our sectors of focus include (but have not been limited to) agriculture, healthcare and livelihoods.
Moving into 2020, they celebrate the consolidation of our efforts under the broad Artha Impact umbrella. They build networks and convene our peers through the platform they have developed – comprised of a combined diligence workflow tool, marketplace and social network – that creates a virtual space for visibility and more effective collaboration between investors and donors, support organizations and service providers. Through our affiliate company Artha Networks Inc., they support the visibility of peer platforms as they profile and aggregate high impact social businesses globally. Through our monthly physical convenings in cities around the world, they make sure the virtual is bolstered by the real.
