The Kinder 10

The Kinder 10

Last year we proudly welcomed four more Kinder backers. That brings the total to 10 we signed the first batch the year before. They are a great bunch of networked advisors who introduce us to many stakeholders in the charitable and financial spaces we with Kinder are maneuvering in.

To get an idea of who they are:

  1. A prominent Dutch family with deep roots in commerce, private equity and philanthropy.
  2. A real estate investor who, together with his kids, decided to dedicate all his resources to leave the world better than he found it, focussing on connecting wealth to highly effective causes.
  3. A hedgefund manager from London who has put a big part of his earned fortune in a charitable fund also fond of effective solutions.
  4. A Dutch entrepreneur who after two big exits has now become a very commited impact investor.
  5. A Scottish entrepreneur who is disrupting the hotel market with a hybrid model while dedicating a lot of his ‘free’ time and resources to make life more humane for refugees.
  6. A Dutch/British impact investor who runs her family office from Israel focussing mainly on impact investing.
  7. A Dutch startup investor and his brother who, besides investing in startups, also support many social projects focussing on loans for education.
  8. A social entrepreneur who after he sold his company to E-bay became a successful vegan food investor.
  9. An LP at a prominent Dutch VC with a private equity background.
  10. Another private equity veteran turned investor, in the past focussing mainly on Africa.

We still need two or three more. We are actively raising for an additional 300k to get Kinder maturely to the market. Please download our Two pager on my website.

If you want to join the Kinder Ten, or know someone who would be suitable for the list, please contact me because I really need your help!
