TransCap Initiative
About

The TransCap Initiative is a collaborative innovation space for developing, demonstrating, and scaling systemic investing in the places that matter most for human prosperity—such as cities, landscapes, and coastal zones—as well as in value chains and other real-economy systems.

They apply systems thinking, human-centred design, and the principles of mission-driven innovation to explore how financial capital can catalyse the transformation of systems in service of a low-carbon, climate-resilient, just, and inclusive future.

Their mission involves developing a knowledge and innovation base, testing novel concepts and approaches, and building a community of practice. In doing so, they recognise the complex adaptive nature of human and natural systems and the fundamental uncertainty that governs their evolution, and they thus emphasise the need for collaboration, experimentation, and learning.

The places and value chains they intend to transform act as centres of gravity for their work. In each of these systems, they will work with challenge owners, communities, innovators, investors, and other stakeholders to design, structure, and finance strategic investment portfolios nested within a broader systems intervention approach.

The TransCap Initiative has been initiated and is currently supported by EIT Climate-KIC.
