Mercy Corps

Mercy Corps Ventures is a seed and early-stage impact investment fund. We look for ventures pioneering solutions in financial services, agriculture, last-mile logistics, and youth employment. We're an early source of capital for these ventures, which we then follow up with a significant investment of our time and expertise. That includes close consultation, technical support, and leveraging Mercy Corps' global network of 5,000 staff across 44 countries, and the many relationships we've built across the private and public sector. We believe that social entrepreneurs have the talent, drive and technical skills to design products and services to positively impact people in fragile places and emerging markets. But, they often struggle to raise early-stage capital and get the support they need to grow. We've invested in and supported 13 exciting ventures across Latam, SE Asia and East Africa. We currently have one investment that has active operations in Myanmar.
