The evolution towards ‘sustainable capitalism’ has accelerated across all investing classes including venture capital, private equity, and public equity. Lightrock is an impact investor that seeks to achieve financial as well as societal and environmental returns by investing in businesses that contribute positively to humankind and the planet.
