Using an Evergreen Impact Fund model, RAIN reinvests profits from successful ventures into new startups, ensuring sustainable economic growth.
Unlike traditional investors seeking quick returns or philanthropic models that lack longevity, RAIN applies Patient Capital, a blended approach that prioritises impact, scalability, and long-term financial returns. We seek investments in ventures who are providing innovative solutions for the problems of underserved communities.
The goal is to demonstrate that patient capital can be an effective model for supporting entrepreneurship in underserved markets. By combining long-term investment with hands-on operational support, we hope to encourage broader investment into frontier markets and unlock lasting economic and social value.
