Blue Impact

What is Blue Impact?

Blue Impact is an early-stage venture capital fund that targets empowering entrepreneurs who are focused on building sustainable supply chains for the future. Recognizing the urgency brought forth by the climate crisis and the accelerated global supply chain redesign necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, Blue Impact is dedicated to deploying sustainable supply chain solutions.

The firm acknowledges that the supply chain is not just a critical component of the global economy but also a fragmented system with unoptimized networks and frequently under-utilized capacity, as evidenced by the statistic that in the USA, trucks run empty one-third of the time. This inefficient system is identified as a significant stakeholder in the climate crisis, accounting for 55% of global energy emissions from transportation and industry combined. Blue Impact's investment strategy revolves around backing extraordinary entrepreneurs that exhibit proven leadership skills, understanding that building a company is a challenging and long-term process demanding resilience and teamwork.

The fund invests in companies that have begun demonstrating traction, which typically falls into pre-seed or seed stages through to Series A. Blue Impact's portfolio encompasses various sectors within the supply chain or those benefiting from supply chain solutions.

These sectors include Freight Marketplaces/Digital Networks, Ecommerce Marketplaces, Digital Fulfillment Solutions, Digital Freight Forwarding Solutions, Express and Parcel Delivery Solutions, Data and Visibility Solutions, and SaaS and Fintech solutions. The fund has a geographic focus on North America, Latin America, and US cross-border investments. With investment minimums set at $100,000, maximums at $5,000,000, and a sweet spot at approximately $250,000, Blue Impact is positioned to support ventures poised to make significant impacts on the supply chain industry.
