In a bold move to reshape the investment landscape, Capital House and WorldStartup have joined forces to launch the Regenerative Capital Room. Together, we aim to revolutionize impact investing by fostering connections, facilitating conversations, and driving impactful investments.
Addressing the Need for Change
In a world where traditional investments often prioritize financial gain over social and environmental well-being, the need for regenerative capital initiatives has never been greater. With a mission to champion investments that generate both financial returns and positive impact, the Regenerative Capital Room promises to make a significant difference in the impact capital space by actively supporting the investment journeys of 500 startups by 2025.
The State of Impact Capital in the Netherlands
According to recent data from Dealroom, the impact investment landscape in the Netherlands is evolving rapidly. In 2022, €1 billion was raised in impact startups, with approximately €285 million allocated to early-stage ventures. However, there is still untapped potential, as Dutch investors manage assets worth an estimated €150-180 billion for impact, representing a small fraction of total assets under management. The programme seeks to address this gap by bringing together progressive investors and entrepreneurs to catalyze change within the impact capital space.
Collective Action and Collaboration
Serving as a space for collaboration, learning, and investment, the Regenerative Capital Room targets startups ranging from pre-seed to Series A funding stages, with thematic areas including Tech for Change, Women in Ventures, and opportunities for co-creation in sectors such as Fashion for Good and Food & Agriculture. Through collaboration and curated matchmaking opportunities, the Room empowers participants to drive positive social and environmental impact.
Empowering Members Through Multi-Level Support
At its core, the program stands on three pillars: community, events, and support. Members gain access to a vibrant community of like-minded individuals, fostering peer-to-peer learning and collaboration. The event series comprises curated matchmaking events and thought leadership sessions, providing unique opportunities for participants to connect, learn, and invest. Additionally, members receive access to valuable resources and support through platforms such as the Changemaker Platform and Dealum, ensuring they have the necessary support to succeed on their impact investing journey.
Building a Brighter Future Together
With the launch of the Regenerative Capital Room, we are striving for a new chapter in impact investing—a chapter fueled by collaboration, innovation, and a steadfast commitment to positive change. By uniting investors and entrepreneurs under one roof, we set out to not only reshape the investment landscape but also to pave the way for a more sustainable and equitable future.
Together, we have the power to build a world where financial success goes hand in hand with social and environmental impact, creating a legacy that will endure for generations to come.
Join us in this journey towards a brighter and more sustainable future.
