Impact Investing at Venturewave Capital

Impact investing at Venturewave Capital is more than a mandate—it is a mission. In this featured roundtable discussion, global thought leaders examine how sustainable investment can deliver meaningful returns while advancing social and environmental progress. Moderated by Kingsley Aikins, the panel includes U2’s The Edge, Anne Finucane of TPG Rise Climate Fund, and Alan Foy, Chairman of Venturewave Capital.

The conversation explores the evolving role of venture capital in solving systemic challenges. From the renewable energy transition to intergenerational wealth building, the panel underscores how financial returns and long-term sustainability are not mutually exclusive. Each speaker highlights the importance of frameworks that measure outcomes, not just intentions, demonstrating that transparency builds trust in modern markets.

Anne Finucane emphasises the power of metrics, referencing tools like the EU Taxonomy and ISSB standards to drive consistency and accountability. The Edge reflects on capitalism’s future, advocating for a model that values solutions over blame and integrates technology as a force for ethical change. Alan Foy adds insights on how platforms like Venturebeam accelerate impact by connecting capital with scalable ideas.

Venturewave Capital is uniquely positioned to scale these ideas globally. Our model aligns capital, community, and capability, forging partnerships across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. We believe the next decade of investing must prioritise both returns and relevance—delivering outcomes that shape the future of business, society, and the planet.
