Social Equity in Action: Signals & Stories from the SVX Impact Index Quarterly Webinar Series

​As conversations around inequality, representation, and economic resilience continue to grow, so does the need for capital models designed to serve communities historically excluded from opportunity.

​This quarterly SVX Impact Index podcast-style webinar brings together three fund managers working at the frontlines of equity-focused investing and deploying capital where it’s needed most: BlackTech Capital Fund, Farmties Capital Ltd. Fund, and the Ilu Women's Empowerment Fund by Deetken Impact.

​These are the funds reshaping what equity-focused investing looks like in practice, with stories spanning through areas including:

• ​Supporting minority-led climate innovators

• ​Financing African agribusinesses locked out of global markets

• ​Strengthening the capacity of women and other vulnerable groups to adapt to climate change

​Then, we’ll zoom out to explore the broader signals shaping the sector with expert perspectives.

​Facilitated by Adam Spence and Jessica Vu (SVX), learn the stories behind these funds, the inequities they are working to address, and the broader market signals defining equity-focused investing right now.
