How many times has "impact investing" entered your conversation last year? According to a recent report by the Forum for Sustainable and Responsible Investment (US SIF) foundation, impact investing has increased by one-third between 2014 and 2016. Abigail Noble, CEO of The ImPact, a family-oriented investment firm focuses on both aspects of purposeful investing: financial return and measurable social benefit. We look forward to hearing about the personal and industry experiences that led Abigail down the path of impact investing in alternative investments, as well as her reflections on how the industry has evolved.
