Impact investment has the potential to transform social enterprises and open up new opportunities for investors - but the legal side of a deal can make or break it. Structure it well from the outset, and a transaction can move efficiently and with confidence. Get it wrong, and even the most promising deal can stall.
Working with MinterEllison and supported by Minderoo Foundation, Social Impact Hub developed the Impact Investing Legal Toolkit - a free, practical resource to help social enterprises, investors, foundations, lawyers and advisors get the legal fundamentals of impact investment right.
They are bringing the toolkit to life with in-person launch events in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. Each session will dig into the legal structures, documents and decisions that underpin impact investment transactions - and the traps that catch people out.
The discussions will be led by Jessica Mendoza-Roth, Founder and CEO of Social Impact Hub, and Keith Rovers, Partner at MinterEllison - both with deep experience supporting organisations, investors and funders across the impact ecosystem - with more speakers to be announced.
Suited to social enterprises, impact investors, fund managers, foundations, lawyers and advisors - whether you're deep in the sector or just starting to explore it.
