As impact ventures move from early validation towards growth, access to the right kind of
capital becomes critical. Many organisations emerging from accelerator programmes are
on the cusp of entering new markets, geographies, or population segments, yet often
encounter a persistent gap between early catalytic support and larger-scale investment.

This Learning Circle explores how small-to-mid sized catalytic funding, when intentionally
paired with follow-on capital, can be structured as bridge financing across time, supporting
ventures to scale, without losing momentum and impact focus.

The session will be grounded on 100x Impact’s evolving follow-on capital
structure, which has been intentionally deployed globally, and more targeted across
Southeast Asia over the past year. It invites insights from practitioners grappling with
similar challenges, collectively exploring what it takes to build effective capital bridges that
enable scale of impact.
