#impactinvesting — Public Fediverse posts

Wie erzähle ich eine Equity Story, die Investor:innen wirklich überzeugt? 💰
// Marie Wysk – Senior Transaction Manager, FASE Finanzierungsagentur für Social Entrepreneurship

Marie Wysk weiß, wie sich Fundraising anfühlt – von beiden Seiten. Als Gründerin hat sie selbst erlebt, wie schwer es ist, Kapital für Ideen mit gesellschaftlichem Mehrwert zu gewinnen. Heute begleitet sie bei FASE Gründer:innen in Finanzierungsrunden und bringt zusammen, was zusammengehört: Kapital und Wirkung.
Fünf Jahre Strategieberatung und Corporate-VC-Erfahrung, fünf Jahre Impact-Startup-Ökosystem – sie kennt die Sprache der Investor:innen genauso gut wie die Realität der Gründer:innen. 🎙️

// Bei #Waterkant26 erfahrt ihr von Marie, was Investor:innen wirklich überzeugt und wie man die eigene Wachstumsgeschichte so erzählt, dass Kapital folgt.

And one of the major issues for freedom of press is economic independence.

“Guaranteeing freedom, independence and plurality in today’s media landscape requires stable and transparent financial conditions. Without economic independence, there can be no free press. When news media are financially strained, they are drawn into a race to attract audiences at the expense of quality reporting, and can fall prey to the oligarchs and public authorities who seek to exploit them. When journalists are impoverished, they no longer have the means to resist the enemies of the press — those who champion disinformation and propaganda. The media economy must urgently be restored to a state that is conducive to journalism and ensures the production of reliable information, which is inherently costly. Solutions exist and must be deployed on a large scale. The media’s financial independence is a necessary condition for ensuring free, trustworthy information that serves the public interest.”

- Anne Bocandé -
RSF Editorial Director

Thus, if somebody reads this who has too much money lying on their bank accounts (of course, the 1% or 0.1% is here in the fediverse!):

You can be part of the solution. We all know rich oligarchs buying media in order to turn the world into a fascist hell, no?

So, why not financing independent media while committing to their independence?

There is a very interesting media fund, called MDIF:

"MDIF provides debt and equity financing supported by strategic advice to independent media in countries where access to reliable news and information is under threat."

https://www.mdif.org/

You won't make a lot of profit with this investment. But at least your money on the bank doesn't make the world worse.

(yes, personally I believe more in radical media collectives, but the scale here is a different one).

Imagine this: You're not chasing investors — you're choosing them.
That’s the power of clarity and alignment.

🚀 Because real power is having options.

👉 Founders: Would you rather have one big investor or many smaller aligned ones?

One small investment. Thousands of lives transformed.

A $50K impact fund brought solar light to a Kenyan village, sparking education, enterprise, and economic growth.
This is what happens when capital meets compassion.

I need wisdom from the #Fediverse! I've mostly ignored the bird site since last fall, but am now handling social media for an #impactinvesting nonprofit focused on #racialequity, and I notice that despite having a 1500+ following, our bird site impressions (and also FB) are in the double digits. So 2 questions:
1) Is that just the way it is now, no pay, no eyeballs?
2) Is there a Mastodon instance that's building a community of leftie finance/#solidarityeconomy folks?
Thanks all!
