OUR IMPACT REPORT CIC seeks to achieve strong financial returns for its stakeholders by investing in best-inclass companies and supporting the growth of those companies with available resources. Incorporating the consideration of ESG (environmental, social and governance) factors into our investment practice aligns the investment activities with our core values and broader societal objectives. By enabling the transition of innovation and entrepreneurship into global businesses, CIC’s investments are expected to deliver a positive impact, both in terms of the goods and services produced and in terms of the businesses themselves.

As an anchor institution in the Cambridge ecosystem, we seek to demonstrate leadership by working with our partners and co-investors in Cambridge, and the broader innovation ecosystem, to accelerate the consideration of ESG factors in our portfolio companies. We are delighted to report that later this year we will issue our inaugural Impact Report which will include, inter alia, a summary of our impact strategy, details of our impact KPIs, a description of our approach to responsible investment, selected portfolio company case studies and certain aggregated impact and ESG data collected from our portfolio companies.
