Chapter Chapter 1 in Impact Investing, 2023, pp 1-11 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Impact investing is strongly linked with social problems and societal challenges which are changing at an accelerating pace. The way those challenges are being addressed has been changed as well. A new generation of entrepreneurs is working on social business models and new investors have become involved in the funding of those approaches. The chapter also differentiates impact investing from other forms of creating social impact and gives an overview of what is discussed in the book.
