One Planet Ventures, LLC

One Planet Ventures (OPV) is a think tank and strategic impact consultancy focused on “connecting the dots” between mainstream finance and the world of “multiple bottom lines” in which social and environmental targets are as meaningful as financial returns.

Climate and social resilience will determine the degree to which we can build back, much less “build back better”, yet it’s hard to structure ventures or quantify impact over short time horizons when the change we seek occurs only gradually over time. For business owners, it can be challenging to identify the impacts of existing operations, yet this is an important first step in moving toward sustainable success.

OPV can help you understand both short and long-term implications of ESG, CSR, the SDGs, impact investment and sustainable finance in practical and actionable terms. What’s material for your business, or for your investors? We live in a risky world, but risk also brings opportunity. Let us help you reduce the former and take maximum advantage of the latter.

Don’t let FOG (fear of greenwashing) stop you from learning more about how money can create not only profit, but also social and environmental returns to your business and on your investments.
