Investment Thesis

ScaleGood Fund believes that venture capital investments can simultaneously deliver top-tier financial returns and measurable social impact. Their core philosophy centers on ‘doing good and delivering results,’ rejecting the false choice between profitability and purpose. They emphasize alignment between mission-driven limited partners and impact-focused entrepreneurs, believing that when values are aligned, ‘expect a magical impact.’

What Sets Them Apart

Dual-return model: explicitly requires both financial AND social impact returns, not treating them as trade-offs
Mission and values alignment: focuses on pairing mission-oriented LPs with purpose-driven entrepreneurs
Syndicate participation approach: typically participates in deals rather than leading, preferring to work with other impact-focused investors
Strong preference for AI/ML leverage: gives 'stronger preference to ventures who already leverage AI/ML or have concrete near term plans'
Accelerator pipeline: benefits from active participation in TELUS Community Safety and Wellness Accelerator with 12+ weeks observation period before investment assessment
Quantified social impact reporting: uses SPI (Social Progress Imperative) Index aligned with UN SDGs for measurable reporting
Fast decision timeline: targets 3-week decision window for qualified opportunities
Experienced team with deep networks: leverages connections through Aspen Global Leadership Network, YPO, and Entrepreneurs Organization
