TPG Rise was recognized on Fortune’s 2022 Change the World List alongside a number of inspiring companies, including two of our portfolio companies: InStride and Zipline. As “the engine behind dozens of world-changing startups,” TPG Rise’s entrepreneurs and portfolio companies are responding to current social needs and economic dislocation with a continued commitment to deliver impact through scalable business solutions. In addition to providing capital and business-building expertise to our impact businesses, we are committed to using the TPG Rise ecosystem to amplify the profile of our entrepreneurs, founders, and CEOs so that they can both maximize their impact and inspire a new generation of impact-driven entrepreneurs.

We built TPG Rise and the most rigorous, evidence-based, and data-driven impact assessment methodology on the chassis of TPG to demonstrate to institutional investors and our large private equity peers that – when done right – impact investing can scale, and private companies can make a positive difference.
