- Improve standards for impact measurement, simplifying and strengthening the investment comparison process for investors,

- Advocate and educate the wider community about the benefits of impact investment for all Western Australians.

Fast facts: Western Australian NFP’s hold over $4B cash on their balance sheets. WA State Govt spends over $13B per annum on procurement. Philanthropy & venture capital is over $1B pa combined and Superannuation funds under management in WA exceed $200B. These circumstances combined create an enormous un-tapped opportunity to bridge the gap between investment and grant-making for sustainable social impact investment and impact in WA
