Who’s Leading the Way in Impact Investing—And Why Their Focus Matters to Us

Together We RISE: Rewarding Investments through Smart Education

Hello RISE Impact Enthusiasts,

Unlocking New Impact Opportunities: Version 1 Launches This Week

We're excited to announce that Version 1 of our impact investing community platform will launch this week, starting with our Impact Circle members on Tuesday! After navigating several key challenges—from selecting the most relevant educational topics to designing an intuitive user experience—we’re ready to share the platform with you.

To kick things off, we’ll be offering free educational content on topics like What is Angel Investing?, Venture Capital Basics, Sustainable Agriculture, and the differences between Public vs. Private Investing. Everything will be presented in a simple, easy-to-understand format, and we’re also introducing a special feature: a short video series that will help you explain these concepts to your kids or the next generation, so we can start these conversations early and together.

Of course, we’ll stay focused on our mission—creating an impactful legacy together. By keeping our discussions centered on values-aligned investing, we can build a future that reflects our principles. You’ll also have access to private investment opportunities across all asset classes, along with a 12-week comprehensive impact investing course to deepen your expertise.

This is just the beginning of an exciting journey, and we’re thrilled to have you with us.

As always, let's share this valuable knowledge of values aligned investing with our loved ones, including our children (it's never too early to start!), friends, and broader community. With that said, let's explore this week’s impactful opportunity.

🌟 Transforming Women's Brain Health: A NextGen Digital Solution for Proactive Care and Impact 🌟

Why This Matters: The Future of Women's Brain Health

This groundbreaking digital health platform is tailored specifically to women's brain health—a critical yet often overlooked aspect of healthcare. By supporting women with expert referrals, personalized plans, and cutting-edge technology, this solution directly addresses some of the most pressing brain health challenges disproportionately impacting women today.

Did you know?

  • 70% of Alzheimer's patients are women

  • Women are twice as likely as men to suffer from depression

  • Migraines affect women 3 to 4 times more than men

With brain health issues costing the U.S. $800 billion annually, and menopause alone costing women $1.8 billion in lost working time each year, the need for innovative, gender-specific solutions has never been greater.

Mission-Driven Innovation
This platform empowers women to proactively monitor their brain health, adhere to healthier lifestyles, and connect with specialists. By combining personalized insights with conversational AI, it takes a holistic approach to address six key areas for optimal brain health: exercise, diet, sleep, social engagement, mental stimulation, and stress management.

Why Now?
Launching a freemium health app in October 2024, with a premium model coming in April 2025, the platform aims to build a strong foundation of 5,000 active users. With its subscription model and B2C2B approach for employee benefits and healthcare providers, it’s poised for scalable impact.

Female Leadership with Global Experience
Led by a dynamic female founder with extensive international experience across Asia, North Africa, Europe, and North America, this platform brings a rich cultural perspective and deep expertise in human-centered design and technology.

Impact Goals and Funding:
With a focus on research and proactive care, the platform is seeking $350K in funding to achieve its next milestones: 5,000 users and $50K MRR.

For those passionate about women's health, digital innovation, and impact-driven solutions, this is a unique opportunity to follow a journey that’s making strides in one of the most critical healthcare sectors of our time.

FYI, they will be presenting at our Impact Circle next week.
