KfW Capital not only integrates sustainability into its own investment activities. It also aims to actively shape the VC ecosystem.
In addition to having an intensive dialogue with our portfolio funds on ESG and impact issues, we want to engage with other stakeholders in the venture capital ecosystem to drive the market forward and develop standards, particularly in the areas of responsible investing and diversity.
Besides the ESG training, which we have co-developed, our activities in this area comprise regular events such as the KfW Capital VC Academy and the KfW Capital Award.
