Steward-Ownership Investor Network
Changing the way how we invest has a massive impact on the future economy and businesses we enable. A growing number of Investors and Partners are looking for steward-owned businesses. From Angel investor to Family Office or Impact Funds, a wide variety of Investment-partners is eager to invest in mission-driven companies that stay independent for the long run.
I believe that an economy with more steward-owned businesses could work better in the future than the economy we have built over the last 40 years.
I invest in steward-owned start-ups because steward-ownership aligned investments allow them to focus on and keep their purpose. It fills me with joy to see how those companies develop without external shareholders taking over control.
I invest in steward-owned companies because I think it is necessary and important that we find and showcase new ways of dealing with company and corporate ownership – for a healthy environment and financial system.
