About PCV
Pacific Community Ventures (PCV) announces the acquisition of Radiant Data, a technology and AI startup that partners with mission-driven firms, CDFIs, funders, and catalytic family offices turning complex data into powerful stories of impact.
As part of PCV’s 2030 strategic plan, the Radiant Data acquisition solidifies PCV’s leadership in responsible technology and AI use, scaling its impact underwriting, data-driven impact measurement, and personalized business advising—particularly in ways that promote quality job creation and climate resilience.
Radiant Data is now integrated into PCV as the new Radiant Data Hub, and in addition, PCV has fully acquired the intellectual property for its AIKKA AI tool.
The Radiant Data Hub will provide technology and AI services to peer CDFIs, social enterprises, funders, and partners, including through data and AI governance, predictive modeling, qualitative data synthesis, and impact storytelling.
PCV is also the first CDFI to publish a responsible AI and technology policy
By 2030, PCV aims to deploy $100 million in restorative capital, $30 million in energy efficiency capital for small businesses, and help create 100,000 good and green jobs across our communities and Main Streets. The Radiant Data acquisition is integral to realizing PCV’s vision over the next five years to deepen its use of responsible technology and AI to:
Harness predictive analytics to grow the lending portfolio to $100M.
Deepen access to capital, wealth building opportunities, and 100K Good Jobs throughout California leveraging predictive underwriting.
Build and scale worker-centered solutions by harnessing worker voice through the acquisition of proprietary AIKKA application IP.
Develop new markets of climate economy and wealth building opportunity through nuanced client insights.
Create space for human connection critical to co-imagining fund innovations through Indigenous, place-based, and other high impact partnerships.
