Global Partnerships VC Fund · Seattle, Washington, United States
Global Partnerships is an impact-first investor dedicated to expanding opportunity for people living in poverty. For 25 years GP has invested in sustainable solutions that help impoverished people increase their incomes and improve their lives, with core investments in livelihoods, education, health, energy, housing, and sanitation. Since inceptionGP has deployed $356.5 million in impact investments to 135 partners, bringing meaningful impact to over 14.7 million lives in 21 countries.What is Impact-First Investing?Impact-first investing means investing in a way that seeks the highest possible social impact, while seeking to preserve capital with a modest financial return for investors.Impact-first investing is distinctly different from return-first investing, which seeks the highest possible financial return (often without consideration of social or environmental consequences), and from philanthropy, which seeks the highest social impact without any preservation of capital.We believe that impact-first investing has an essential role to play in advancing sustainable solutions to poverty for millions of people worldwide.What Does Impact Mean to Global Partnerships?All of our impact-first investing is aimed at empowering poor and marginalized people to earn a living, provide the basic necessities of life for their families, and improve their lives. We seek social impact on four dimensions:Broadening Opportunity – We have a holistic understanding of poverty, so we invest across all facets of poverty: livelihoods, education, energy, health, housing, sanitation, and water.Deepening Inclusion – We invest at the edge of the market, emphasizing approaches that include people marginalized by depth of poverty, gender, and/or geography, including women and the rural poor.Serving Millions – We believe that every person matters, and want to expand opportunity for as many people as possible. We therefore focus on sustainable approaches that can, over time, scale to serve millions of people living in poverty.Improving Lives – We only invest where evidence convinces us that people living in poverty value the opportunity being delivered and are empowered by it – economically or otherwise – to improve their lives.

  • Feteflex — Feteflex is an event service booking platform that serves as a marketplace for booking event professionals and service providers, including event venues, artists, event planners, DJs, caterers, MCs, rentals, and more. Our goal is straightforward: to simplify event planning by providing a transparent, secure, and accessible solution that connectsevent organizers with vendors, and service providers. Our mission is to empower event organizers and businesses across Africa by providing a marketplace for event planning, eliminating booking struggles, payment issues, and visibility challenges, and ensuring successful event execution.We are addressing the challenges of inefficiency, insecurity, and the need for more transparency in event planning for event organizers, vendors, and businesses in the event industry. Event service providers need help to gain visibility and secure bookings due to the absence of a dedicated platform. This makes it difficult for them to attract new clients and showcase their services. Vendors often need help with late or incomplete payments from customers, leading to financial instability and insecurity, hindering their growth and success, and ultimately resulting in decreased revenue. Event hosts often struggle to find event professionals and venues, leading to stress and inefficiencies from excessive time, effort, and resources spent on searching. Currently, no platform ensures secure transactions between clients and service providers, putting clients' money at risk if services aren't delivered.We believe in democratizing access to event management resources and opportunities, creating a level playing field where everyone from small vendors to large corporations can thrive. Our purpose is to make event planning accessible and enjoyable for all, eliminating the stress and inefficiencies that currently plague the industry. By offering a secure platform that connects users with verified event professionals, we are committed to driving positive social and economic change across Africa.Unique Features: Secure Payment System: Safeguards both client and service provider funds, releasing payments only after service confirmation. Real-Time Availability: Users can check the availability of venues and service providers instantly, eliminating the back-and-forth typically associated with event planning. Virtual Tours and Reviews: Provides immersive 360-degree virtual tours of venues and access to verified customer reviews to make informed decisions. Comprehensive Profiles: Detailed profiles of service providers, including pricing, amenities, videos, and photos. Customizable Packages: Users can create tailored event packages by selecting multiple services from different providers.We recognize the significant potential of the event management industry in creating jobs and driving economic growth. Our goal is to establish a reliable platform that connects event organizers with service providers to reduce unemployment and promote financial stability. This effort directly supports SDG #1 (No Poverty) by creating opportunities for small businesses and local service providers to thrive. The event industry in Nigeria faces challenges such as payment fraud, difficulty in finding reliable venues, inconsistent service quality, and outdated practices, all leading to dissatisfaction and financial instability for service providers. Feteflex aims to elevate the standards of the industry by providing a secure, efficient, and transparent platform. This not only improves the quality of services but also ensures decent work conditions and sustainable income for event professionals, aligning with SDG #8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). SDG 17: Partnership for the Goals - We connect event organizers, service providers, artists, and venue operators, fostering a collaborative ecosystem. SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure - We enhance the infrastructure for event planning by leveraging technology to revolutionize the event industry.
