SOCAP, is proud to announce it will be spinning out of its former MissionHUB LLC ownership. Earlier this year, Robert J. Caruso, Founder & Managing Partner of Kantian Social Ventures led the investment round with a group of mission aligned impact investors and innovators to allow SOCAP to independently ramp up its efforts to spread awareness of market based solutions to the world’s greatest challenges, curate thought-leadership in the space, and educate impact market participants. SOCAP will begin expanding its brand reach to larger, more mainstream audiences and enhance its consumer engagement practices to help bring impact investing into the mainstream consciousness.

SOCAP was founded by a small group of entrepreneurs who were committed to accelerating a new global market at the intersection of money and meaning. When this passionate group of collaborators, including Rosa Lee Harden, Kevin Jones, and Tim Freundlich, co-founded SOCAP, assets managed through responsible, sustainable or impact approaches were fringe and disparate. Today, over $8.7 trillion in assets are managed through these approaches globally.

We are proud to be a pioneer of the impact investing industry and the largest convener in the space. SOCAP’s place has always been in the vanguard of the emerging global impact economy – convening ideas and capital to catalyze world change.

Rosa Lee Harden will continue in her role as SOCAP’s Executive Producer, Kevin Jones as Convener, Lindsay Smalling as Producer and Curator, and Jamie McGonnigal as Director of Business Development.
