Since 2008, Propel Capital has invested US$50 million in companies, non-profits, and future leaders working across 16 of the 17 UN sustainable development goals, and impacting millions of lives. Their 100+ partners are challenging the status quo and building a future that works for the many, not just the few.
Sparked by a shared interest in cross-sector solutions to issues of inequality, Propel Capital works with a range of dynamic social entrepreneurs and organizers to employ creative approaches that fuel innovation and drive social change. Their approach ensures that investment capital is cycled repeatedly for impact and we prioritize strategies for unlocking additional capital. By doing more leg work, taking on more risk, and investing early, they have leveraged millions more from other investors.
Propel Capital determined early on that all capital allocations should be aligned with our values – from operations to investments to grants. This decision remains central to our mission today.
