Company Profile
Apax Global Impact is an investment firm dedicated to supporting companies that deliver measurable societal and/or environmental impact. As a distinct strategy within the broader Apax Partners platform, it leverages the firm's extensive sector expertise and operational capabilities to drive transformational outcomes for both people and the planet. The firm focuses on identifying and partnering with visionary businesses whose core products and services address critical global challenges, aligning its investment approach with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
The Apax Global Impact strategy was officially launched in November 2021, building upon Apax Partners' long-standing commitment to sustainability and responsible investing, which dates back to its co-founder Sir Ronald Cohen, an impact investing pioneer. The firm's approach integrates a robust and proprietary impact measurement system, developed with internal and external experts, to evaluate and monitor impact throughout the investment lifecycle. This rigorous framework helps identify and track outcomes across its portfolio companies, ensuring both financial and impact returns are optimized.
Apax Global Impact targets investments across four key sector themes: Health & Wellness, Climate, Environment & Resource Efficiency, Social & Economic Mobility, and Digital Impact Enablers. Notable investments include companies like Foods Connected (business/productivity software), GAN Integrity (supply chain risk-management software), Swing Education (an online marketplace connecting schools and substitute teachers), Bonterra (social good software), and Eating Recovery Center (a provider of eating disorder treatment). These investments demonstrate the firm's commitment to diverse solutions that address pressing social and environmental issues.
The dedicated Apax Global Impact team, co-led by Managing Partners Alykhan Nathoo and David Su, comprises experienced investment professionals supported by an Impact Advisory Board of industry experts. This team benefits from the broader Apax platform's global reach, deep sub-sector knowledge in technology, services, and internet/consumer, and the value creation potential of Apax's Operational Excellence Practice. This integrated approach allows Apax Global Impact to provide specialist insights, reduce execution risk, accelerate growth, and expand margins for its partner companies.
