It is our pleasure to invite you to join us for the inaugural episode of our newly-minted ‘High Impact’ webinar series, where we take a close look at some of the most compelling philanthropic and impact investing themes to inspire you as an agents of social change.  

We kick off the series by turning our focus to high impact philanthropy. Whether you are a budding philanthropist or a seasoned donor, how do you generate impact in your giving? What are the tools available to support you as you invest your wealth, time and energies in your bid to create a better future? 

This webinar will showcase a real-life story of how an individual donor sets into motion a High Impact cycle, involving traditional philanthropy, venture philanthropy and impact investing.  The webinar will also feature a successful case study on leveraging technology to disrupt the way aid is delivered to end-beneficiaries. 

Ms. Cherie Nursalim will share her experience as a philanthropist who, through traditional philanthropy, supported a Fellow who went on to found an award-winning tech startup, Duithape. This start-up in turn is supported firstly by venture philanthropy (She Loves Tech) and subsequently by impact investment (Teja Ventures). 

Joining her is Ms. Sara Dhewanto, founder of Duithape, a mobile payments platform that reaches out to unbanked Indonesians through digital aid distribution. Duithape has become a pioneer in this space in Indonesia, where more than half of the population do not have bank accounts.

Our third speaker for the webinar is Ms. Virginia Tan, founder of She Loves Tech, a non-profit organization that runs the world’s largest startup competition for women and technology. Virginia is also founding partner of Teja Ventures, the first pan-Asian venture capital fund committed to investing with a gender lens. In addition to objective investment criteria, the gender lens Teja Ventures employs targets businesses which are either women-led, focus on women consumer-led markets, or which create positive impact on women in the wider ecosystem.

We would be delighted if you could participate in this engaging and inspiring session.
