The Commons Society Capital Fund
The Capital Fund is a powerful transformative force that serves four purposes:
-
To enable owners of businesses held within the logic of a traditional company to bring their company into the Commons Society – for example for a managed succession.
-
To Invest in traditionally held for-profit companies which are for sale irrespective of the current owners future intentions in order to bring those organisations into the Commons Society.
-
To provide capital for existing Commons Society for-profit enterprises.
-
To provide start-up capital for entrepreneurs seeking to initiate a for profit enterprise within the Commons Society.
The Commons Society Capital Fund is currently exploring funding mechanism to kick start a pilot project. Expressions of interest are welcome from:
-
Philanthropic Donors
-
Crowd funding partners
-
Venture Philanthropists
The Commons Society Capital Fund is set up as a Restricted Fund with an expert board focussed on its activities as an Economic Development Agency within the Commons Society.
