Giant Leap Fund is Australia’s first venture capital fund that is 100% dedicated to investing in impact startups – rapidly scalable businesses that blend financial returns with real and measurable social and environmental benefits. We invest across the following themes: Sustainable living, health and wellbeing, and empowering people.

In 2021, Giant Leap spun out from IIG into a new independent entity solely focussed on Impact Venture Capita. It also started raising its second fund, Giant Leap Fund II. Giant Leap is currently investing from Giant Leap Fund II and will continue its mission to back game-changing founders re-imagining industries and using business as a force for good.
