Impact Bridge

President and CEO Arun Gore leads the firm, while CIO Margret Trilli oversees manager selection, portfolio construction, and impact measurement. Trilli's background spans institutional asset management and emerging-market private equity. The investment team combines developed-market institutional discipline with on-the-ground sourcing networks that reach fund managers conventional consultant databases miss.

Sourcing relies on regional networks, referrals from existing GPs and co-investors, and direct outreach in markets where local fund manager ecosystems are still maturing. The firm prioritizes managers raising sub-$150 million vehicles who operate beyond the coverage scope of traditional institutional gatekeepers. Due diligence includes in-person visits, co-investor reference calls, and verification of reported impact metrics against IRIS+ and SDG-aligned standards.

Impact Bridge operates as a fund-of-funds, committing capital to private equity, venture capital, and private credit funds managed by third-party GPs. The firm does not make direct investments into portfolio companies, nor does it co-invest alongside its underlying managers. This structure allows institutional allocators to access a diversified pool of emerging-market impact strategies through a single commitment.

The firm deploys across Sub-Saharan Africa, South and Southeast Asia, and Latin America. Sector exposure includes financial inclusion, sustainable agriculture, renewable energy access, healthcare delivery, and education technology. Impact Bridge constructs portfolios diversified across vintages, countries, and strategies rather than concentrating in any single theme or region.

The firm integrates impact measurement into manager selection and ongoing monitoring, using IRIS+ metrics, SDG-aligned frameworks, and fund-specific KPIs agreed upon at commitment. Underlying GPs report portfolio company impact data which Impact Bridge aggregates and standardizes for institutional LPs, allowing comparison across vintages, geographies, and strategies. The reporting framework aligns with the operating principles for impact management.
