They are building a community of investors, foundations, market-leading companies and non-profits to deploy private capital into systemic solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges.

Encourage Capital believes that systemic problems require systemic solutions, and that this approach uncovers investments where the profit and the impact are inextricably linked. Their investment strategies are designed with impact not as an afterthought, but as the fundamental value that lies at the heart of everything they do. They believe that by doing this, they can not only generate competitive financial returns for their investors, but also work with their investors as partners to help change the world.
