A modest proposal: maybe we should try giving every other entrepreneur who hasn't had access to capital a shot before we re-up on those with a track record of losing millions? We can loop back around to them at the end of the line...

• More bang for buck ... there is a lot of duplication, spending on same things in different funds/initiatives even when missions very similar.

Obvs biased, but this is why I'm so excited to see where this partnership goes👇🏿

NEW BLOG! Our CEO @evans_eddy explains why sustainable #Socialimpact needs a more flexible approach to #investment. With less than 1% of companies able to raise VC investment & only 1% reaching a value of over $1bn, we’re taking a different approach.
