We have published the 2023 Impact Review, which reviews our activities over the past five years starting from our days as the Foundation for Social Investment. This report extracts what we have learned through our activities, and presents our current mid-term strategy.
SIIF cooperates with organizations that are involved in the global promotion of impact investing and social impact measurement/management, and in addition to communicating the latest trends in Japan, it works to disseminate leading cases and knowledge from overseas within Japan.

At the Social Innovation and Investment Foundation, we direct our activities towards realizing an ecosystem for social and economic resource circulation in a way that transcends the conventional frameworks of self-help, public help and mutual help.
