We are investors. A different kind of investor. We invest in people and companies working to solve problems for people living in poverty… essential products and services that bring more opportunities, more choices to millions. To date, Acumen has positively impacted 501 million lives by investing $154M in 167 innovative, early-stage companies in Africa, Latin America, South Asia, and the United States. But investing clearly is not just about capital. It is about investing in people. We have been investing in people for years. Connecting with emerging leaders in their own countries and engaging them in extended collective dialogue on what constitutes a “good society,” moral inquiry, and skill building.

The Development & Partnerships team leads fundraising efforts for the organization, working with companies like Apple, IKEA Foundation, Target Foundation, Bank of America, Barclay’s, Autodesk Foundation SAP, Barclays,EY, and others to invest in and support early-stage social enterprises and business leaders across the energy access, agriculture, workforce development, and financial inclusion sector to develop more inclusive, locally-led, sustainable business models.
