Make!mpact is a Nordic Impact Fintech startup with a focus on sustainability and impact investing and our goal is to generate a positive societal impact by changing people’s financial behaviour.
Make!mpact in a nutshell:
We are not here to tell you how to live sustainable – nor are we here to tell you what is right or wrong when it comes to investing your money.
We know that there are many ways in which you can make the world a better place, but we also know that one of the most effective ways to – collectively – make a difference, is by investing in companies that are helping to generate a positive societal impact.
You might already now be thinking that investing is for someone with years of experience and deep industry knowledge – and of course, a lot of money to invest.
While this may be true for many of the impact investors out there, it definitely shouldn’t stop you from getting started on your own impact investing journey – no matter your income or knowledge about investing and/or sustainability.
Our app matches the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to global listed companies that share the same values as you. Our goal is to enable you to make informed decisions about investments that align with your values represented in the 17 SDGs and thereby get you started investing with a sustainable mindset.
