Impact Strategy

Our impact approach centers on contributions to SDG 5, 8, and 13,
fostering sustainable outcomes. Three pillars address key
challenges and align with the UN’s global agenda.

We aim to invest in companies that support our core impact objectives around:

Inclusivity
Resilience
Climate Change

Inclusivity

Impact objective

Maximise economic participation for women and reduce inequalities, including by providing access to high-quality, affordable goods and services.

What do we strive for?

At BluePeak, we are convinced that gender equality in our team and portfolio companies’ teams is a driver of improved performance, through better representation of the communities we serve. We have managed to drive gender equality by working closely with management teams to build inclusive workplaces.

2X Challenge

In March 2022, we decided to go a step further and to mark our intentionality on equality, and signed up for the 2X Challenge.

Resilience

Impact objective

Enable new & growing businesses to flourish, supporting them to embrace digital innovation, strengthen local manufacturing capacity, and improve job quality - driving an increase of productivity for the African economy.

What do we strive for?

Through our partnerships, we aim to foster resilience and drive economic growth across the continent. Our approach to resilience is driven by the potential to invest across a variety of industries, which promote fundamental qualities to build sustainable and inclusive growth.

Climate Action

Impact objective

Invest in innovative and scalable solutions that directly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while promoting responsible consumption and production methods.

What do we strive for?

Climate forms an integral part of our impact strategy, and we are working on strengthening our policies and reporting procedures to better assess physical and transition risks while supporting the portfolio companies in identifying opportunities to reduce their CO² intensity during the life of the investment.
