The Evolution Fund
"Where is the money going, and how is it truly being put to work? In a world abundant with wealth and resources, why are we still grappling with the same injustices, inequalities, and systemic gaps?"
The Evolution Fund is a platform for those who believe that wealth is a responsibility, a power to be wielded wisely. In each episode, we examine the systems behind today’s social impact investments, dissecting how resources are—or aren’t—driving real change. With a rigorous eye and unrelenting curiosity, we seek to answer one pressing question: how can we direct wealth toward true, sustainable impact?
Through interviews with visionaries, impact investors, and pioneers in policy and business, we’ll illuminate the path to a world where wealth doesn’t simply circulate—it evolves, adapts, and creates a legacy of equity and progress. Join us on The Evolution Fund to move beyond traditional philanthropy and discover how strategic systems innovation can build a better, more accountable future.
This is a podcast for thinkers, doers, and those who know that real change requires an evolution in how we view and deploy capital. Let’s answer the questions that matter, together.
