Systemic Investing Salon 2

From idea to practice: What does systemic investing look like in the real world?
The first salon opened the conversation.
This one goes where it gets interesting: into decisions, dilemmas, and real-life practice.
Systemic investing asks a bigger question than “What return does this create?” It asks: How can capital actively shape the systems we want to live in—ecological, social, and economic?
Together with TransCap Initiative (pioneering and building the systemic investing field), Karma Capital (VC putting the theory into practice), and Toniic (global action network for impact investors), we’re going to explore how to put this into action.
This evening brings together systems thinkers, impact investors, founders, fund builders, and curious newcomers who want less theory and more honest exchange about what works, what doesn’t, and what each of us can try next.
But between vision and implementation sit hard questions:
How do I actually apply systemic criteria to an investment decision?
What does a fund structure look like when it takes systems seriously?
How do I bring colleagues, boards, or partners along?
Where do good intentions get stuck—and what helps them move?

What to expect
We’ll create a living-room atmosphere with snacks & drinks for learning from each other—not a panel where experts talk at the room.
Arrive, connect, and ground yourself with a gentle opening that moves us from busy heads into shared presence.
Get a shared map of systemic investing: what it means, why it matters now, and how it differs from conventional impact approaches.
Hear a real case from practice: Karma Capital’s new fund structure and the choices, tensions, and learnings behind it.
Join a practical dialogue and open Q&A where your questions, doubts, and experience shape the conversation.
Choose a How-to Lab that meets you where you are—whether you’re getting started, already implementing, or bringing an open question to the table.
Harvest insights together and leave with one concrete intention: What will you try after leaving the salon?
We’ll also close with a special glimpse into the work of Living Gaia Foundation — connecting systemic investing to real-world impact.
