help bring newcomers into the game. We hope it helps high net worth individuals, family offices and others to know some of the questions, if not the answers, to determine what’s right for them and what to do next to move toward meaningful, measureable impact. We kept it short and, we hope, fun to read. We developed a flexible framework and a simple taxonomy to help people get their arms around impact investing. We have also included several profiles of impact ventures, funds and investors that you can see at ImpactAlpha (impactalpha.com). The guide builds on the work of great champions for this movement. The Rockefeller Foundation, Omidyar Network and many others have been pioneers in supporting the development of the field. We hope that this guide will inform, pose questions, provide some answers and develop a robust conversation. We now invite you to help build the future of impact investing by sharing your experiences and comments to make the guide more helpful.
