social venture capital

Social venture capital is a form of investment that funds organizations and projects aiming to create positive social or environmental change. Unlike traditional venture capital, which primarily seeks financial returns, social venture capital also values impact, supporting initiatives that address issues like poverty, education, or sustainability. Investors provide funding and resources to innovative solutions, expecting both social benefits and, in some cases, financial returns. This approach encourages sustainable solutions that make a measurable difference in communities while allowing investors to participate in meaningful change.
