At Barlow Impact Group (B.I.G.) we back people, projects, initiatives and new technologies that put people and planet first and who are creating a better world.

We only invest and partner with people who are also seeking to reduce inequalities.

100% of our corpus is invested in sustainable initiatives designed for people and the planet to prosper.

The common thread in our investments is innovation, sustainability and a determination to always be better. For example, we invest in numerous tech solutions across industries, ranging from agriculture to education. We also invest in renewable practices that maintain ecological harmony and projects that enable individuals and communities to create healthy and sustainable ecosystems for people to thrive.

Investment history

In 2016, B.I.G. made the decision to commit to 100% impact/ Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) exposure in order to leverage the overall power of the capital base. This enables us to have the greatest possible impact.

Between 2014 and 2019, the Barlow Impact Group grew ESG and impact investments from 2% to 93%. We are leaders in this space are proud of this effort and seek to continue to show others how we multiply our impact. We use our voice and experiences to affect change.

Measuring Impact

Measurement of impact is key to monitoring and improving. We therefore measure our impact in both our grants and our investments against the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Impact Management Project framework. Head over to the Resources tab to learn more.
