Social Impact Investing: Driving Positive Change Through Disruptive Philanthropy

About Solve Innovation Future

Solve Innovation Future was created in 2019 to direct disruptive philanthropy to early-stage social entrepreneurs via a Donor Advised Fund. As a philanthropic venture investment vehicle, Solve Innovation Future continues to demonstrate that philanthropy, deployed in the form of investment toward early stage innovators, has outsized potential to catalyze impact, and financial returns. Just 3 years after our first investments, we have more than doubled our investee portfolio, tripled our capital deployed, and quadrupled the capital catalyzed toward our investees.
