2022 is a wrap!
December 2022
Dear friends and partners.
As we get ready to break for the holidays I wanted to take some time to look back on 2022. This year has been challenging for so many reasons. Thanks to our team we have had a number of successes working with our investor networks across different projects and companies.
For us 2022 has proven once again that through working together collaboratively it is possible to achieve great things.
We have built and launched new products and funding options across our platform. We have also significantly expanded our global partnerships team and have worked with a lot of new family offices, funds and private investors.
Through our impact investment arm Trillion we have continued to develop stronger ties with companies and investors in Latin America, SE & Central Asia, Sub Saharan Africa and US/UK/Europe.
Closer to home we have added access to new streams of community funding from government sources. Supporting smaller scale projects that benefit local communities both in the UK and globally will always be part of our offering at Fundsurfer.
Providing our expertise and access to capital to organisations and non profits will be a key part of our strategy to help with community energy, housing, youth programs and other urgent areas of development.
Our community share offer initiative has opened up more routes to offer access to funding for UK CICs, social enterprises and Charities. We can now help combine that funding option with the community ownership fund and recovery loan fund alongside Reach Fund grants.
These efforts put us in a good position for 2023 to expand further our community support and funding for UK projects.
Our deal origination team have been very busy, reviewing over 1000 companies in detail, helping our investors through sourcing and pre-vetting opportunities.
As we move into the new year I also wanted to offer our sincere thanks to everyone that has helped us with our funding initiatives. Special mention to everyone involved in our Ukraine and Afghanistan campaigns, I know how difficult it has been. All fundraising is tough, however our team working on Ukraine and Afghanistan continue to overcome some massive logistical and practical challenges.
Many thanks as well to all of our partners, donors and backers for your continued support of our work.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in 2023.
Kind regards,
Oliver
Fundsurfer CEO.
