“We believe we can change the world by investing in companies that serve the wellbeing of people and planet”

“Preserving the Earth’s ecosystems is fundamental for food security, climate change mitigation, poverty reduction and social stability”
Invest in a sub-fund
In 2017 we launched our first sub-fund: the Pymwymic Healthy Ecosystems Impact Fund. We believe healthy ecosystems are the starting point of life. Preserving the Earth’s ecosystems is fundamental for food security, climate change mitigation, poverty reduction and social stability, as well as overall sustainable development. The Healthy Ecosystems Impact Fund invests in innovative impact companies that seek to conserve and restore our ecosystems while providing an attractive financial return. We focus on six sectors: (1) agriculture & food systems, (2) aquaculture, (3) forestry, (4) water & sanitation, (5) eco-tourism and (6) circular / waste management.
Institutional investors are welcome to co-invest through our sub-fund. Richard Bruens, Van Lanschot Kempen: “Investing in the Pymwymic Healthy Ecosystems Impact Fund gives us the opportunity to further develop our knowledge and expertise of impact investing”
Donate seed capital
We believe in the necessity to fuel the changemakers of tomorrow. Currently, few investors have the risk appetite or resources to support these seed enterprises. Through our donation capital we fund the actual birthplace of new ideas. Our Donor Fund:
- bridges the funding gap of early stage impact entrepreneurs
- allows you to amplify your impact by pooling capital with a professionally run investment vehicle
- offers you the opportunity to learn about impact investing
This programme is partially run by Next Gens as to experience first-hand how to evaluate and manage impact investing opportunities. Our Donor Fund, Stichting Pymwymic Donor Involve Fund, is a Public Benefit Organisation (PBO or ANBI) is eligible for tax-deductions. Returns are re-invested into the fund, hence continue to support the impact ecosystem. Please find more information about Stichting Pymwymic Donor Involve Fund (Donor Fund) here.

“We bridge the funding gap of early stage entrepreneurs by offering seed capital backed by philanthropic capital”

“Catalysing the movement of impact investing is part of our responsibility to the greater impact field”
Support our movement
As a movement builder, we welcome philanthropists to support our efforts to catalyse the movement of impact investing through financial or in-kind contributions. As our community has over twenty years of experience, there is a wealth of information we can harvest and share with the wider impact space. In our past efforts, we have welcomed around 600 new wealth holders into impact investing. Past grants have realised a catalysation effect of 24 times: € 1 million in grant funding supported € 24 million of capital invested for impact.
We build the impact field by:
• Creating awareness with families and foundations
• Moving from awareness to action
• Facilitating the transition into impact investing
• Offering continuous learning about impact investing
• Giving back learnings to the field
