Katapult, founded in 2017 and headquartered in Norway, is carving a niche in the world of impact investing with its mission to make such investments mainstream. Embracing the slogan, "Profit because of impact," the company positions itself at the intersection of financial services and sustainability.
With 169 investments globally, Katapult is showing robust engagement by focusing on climate ventures through two primary strategies: Katapult Ocean, which targets ocean-impact ventures worldwide, earning recognition from bodies like the World Economic Forum, and Katapult Africa, which invests in food, agriculture, and climate initiatives across the continent.
Furthermore, the establishment of the Katapult Foundation in 2021 highlights the company's ambition to expand its network of impact investors. An additional platform for exposure is the annual Katapult Future Fest in Oslo, which convenes leading figures in impact investment.
