Global Council for the Promotion of International Trade efforts to create an angel investor and venture capital ecosystem under the brand Global Alliance of Angel Investor and Venture Capital Networks (GAAIVCN), which will focus on increasing the demand or the supply for angel and VC funding of impact investing, dedicated to increasing its scale and effectiveness around the world. Impact investments are investments made with the intention to generate positive, measurable social and environmental impact alongside a financial return. By creating a more hospitable environment in which entrepreneurs and venture investors operate, the alliance will increase the demand for angel investors and venture capital. Increasing the supply can happen by improving the environment for limited partners who need to be confident that the “rules of the game” will remain roughly constant for the several-year duration of their typical fund commitment. It can also occur in programs through which the government directly funds early-stage projects. It is possible that examining exciting new technologies is more fun than tinkering with the tax rates on long-term capital gains. Even though venture capital as an asset class is small and relatively young, it plays several important roles that we should encourage.
Global Alliance of Angel Investor and Venture Capital Networks (GAAIVCN), Global Council for the Promotion of International Trade (GCPIT) and Tacit Growth Strategies jointly present “Global Impact Investment Summit 2022 (#GIIS2022)” on 21-23rd July 2022 (Virtually).
