Accelerating Impact supports emerging investment managers focused on climate and social impact to develop the impact finance leaders of tomorrow. Accelerating Impact was founded in 2018 as an independent non-profit initiative in the form of a public-private partnership between the Luxembourg State and private entities of the Luxembourg impact finance sector (Arendt & Medernach, Deloitte, Elvinger Hoss, EY, Innpact, Investing for Development, KPMG, LuxFLAG, Opportunity Financial Services, PwC, TIIME and 4Climate). The initiative furthermore collaborates with the European Investment Bank Group and Spuerkeess, Luxembourg’s national savings bank. Accelerating Impact powers the International Climate Finance Accelerator Luxembourg (www.icfa.lu) and the International Social Finance Accelerator Luxembourg (www.isfa.lu). Through these programmes, the initiative offers technical and financial support to impact investment managers in their start-up phase with strong, innovative impact investment strategies in process of fundraising.
