our Impact
Impact is not created by good intentions, but by good companies.
At fair equity, we understand impact as the connection between economic success and social value creation. We invest capital where entrepreneurial solutions emerge that are built to last—rooted in the local context and driven by market logic.
We are convinced that entrepreneurship is the most powerful way to shape the future. Invested capital remains in circulation, is further developed, and scaled. This creates stable structures rather than short-term effects.
At the center are entrepreneurs who know their markets and develop solutions through their own initiative—relevant, market-driven, economically viable, and future-oriented.
OUR IMPACT LOGIC
Our impact unfolds on multiple levels. It begins with the targeted allocation of capital to underfunded regions such as African countries. Less than one percent of global venture capital flows to the African continent. At the same time, we focus on system-relevant sectors with high socio-economic importance: agriculture, healthcare, and education.
In addition to capital, we actively support our portfolio companies through sparring, strategic guidance, and access to relevant networks. This fosters entrepreneurial growth, creates new jobs, and builds long-term economic prospects that contribute to poverty reduction.
Impact is an integral part of our investment strategy. For orientation, we align with the Sustainable Development Goals. The following KPIs illustrate how our investments create tangible and measurable impact.
