Richard Georg Engström

I am a seasoned entrepreneur in technology and advisor, investor and financier of projects, ventures and organizations with a cultural, social and environmental positive outcome. Since the mid 90’s I have been part of the Nordic and international ecosystem of start-ups and venture financing. Today I work as an advisor, entrepreneur and investor in solutions with the purpose to improve or systemically change the world to be more balanced, equal and prosperous for each and everyone. IMPACT BUSINESS & INVESTING In 2015 I founded an initiative with the aim to structure data and insights into commercial ventures with technology and other solutions for a sustainable world. Since then our team [today addressed as The One Initiative] have screened, analyzed and assessed 7,000+ start-ups on impact for investors to place their capital in relevant investments. Our work have resulted in some of the first and unique reports in the Nordic and global ecosystem of impact start-ups and investments. See more at The One Initiative [www.oneinitiative.org] and Impact Matcher [www.impactmetcher.com]. COLUMNIST & BLOGGER I write occasionally for Nordic business media, especially on green tech, sustainable solutions and impact investing.
