Horizon 1: Act Now
We focus on educating and mobilising people for impact investing and positive change. We back mission-driven entrepreneurs using technology to solve global challenges, while also addressing potential risks. Our goal is to deliver strong returns by investing in scalable impact solutions and bring people together to build a community for change.
Horizon 2: Accelerate Systemic Transition
We work to align capital, business, and technology for a better world. Through collaboration and a growth mindset, we drive systemic change. In this phase, we also incubate bold impact projects and grow ecosystems that connect and empower changemakers.
Horizon 3: Deep Transformation
We support deep cultural shifts and new ways of thinking, fostering a more connected, collaborative, and conscious society - moving toward what we call the Symbiocene.
Our Strategy
We support deep cultural shifts and new ways of thinking, fostering a more connected, collaborative, and conscious society - moving toward what we call the Symbiocene.
Impact-Driven Investments
We ensure that impact stays at the core of our investment activities. We work with the Katapult VC investment teams at the Investment Committee and investment strategy level to align towards a common goal. The intention is for Katapult Foundation to be a shareholder of the Katapult VC to steward the long-term vision, aligning financial returns with long-term positive change.
Katapult Future Fest
Our flagship festival, and community & movement building platform, Katapult Future Fest, brings together tech entrepreneurs & innovators, impact investors, and change-makers to collaborate, learn, and take action for a better future.
Incubating Transformative Projects
Through the Katapult Foundation, we partner across the impact ecosystem to incubate and scale bold initiatives that drive transformative change, while embracing experimentation, learning, and growth along the way.

What we do
We mobilise capita, people, and technology for good. Through community-building, mindset-shifting, and consciousness elevation, we aim to drive systemic change and create a flourishing future for the planet and all living beings.
