They also help build the skills and capacity of local business institutions, including relevant women’s organisations.

There are two strands to GROWTHCAP’s impact investment work. First, developing pipelines for impact investor Funds, and secondly, assisting in fund-raising for partner investment Funds. Together with the managers of Funds, GROWTHCAP also develops societal goals, and their measurement, for each individual investment.
