“The play is to super serve agents of impact,” Price, who linked up with Bank and ImpactAlpha co-founder Zuleyma Bebell over a decade ago to build the platform, said on the podcast. ImpactAlpha has “become a must read editorial platform in the industry. What we’re executing is to become a must use intelligent tool for Agents of Impact.”
In a moment of of great volatility and change, investors and other professionals using finance as a force for progress are stepping up, said Bank, now ImpactAlpha’s full-time editor-in-chief. “We’re stepping up as well.”
To bring increased transparency and connectivity to the impact investment marketplace, ImpactAlpha is turning its deal reporting and editorial insights into datasets and tools.
What’s not changing? “Our laser focus on impact” in finance, said Price. “At our core, nothing changes, and in fact, [the hyperfocus on impact] is the driver of the evolution and the transition we’re talking about.”
