Ellen Martin has written a great article, Is it Possible to Connect Food, Fish, Farms and Finance?, briefly summarizing our recent Food, Farms, Fish and Finance Forum. Ellen takes a look at the impressive cross-sectoral collaboration that occurred throughout the weekend, and highlights some key takeaways, statistics, and general ideologies from the forum. Please read and feel free to share Ellen’s article!

Also of interest on the Social Finance site is Dave Kranenburg’s article on Four Ways to Catapult Your Venture’s Success, which looks at a collaboration among CSI’s Ontario Catapult Microloan Fund, MaRS Centre for Impact Investing: Impact 8, Toronto+Acumen’s Pioneer+TO, and Project Hatch: the Social Enterprise Incubator. Offering a range of support and resources, each of these opportunities focuses on bringing good ideas to fruition. With this collaboration, you can now apply to one or all of them on one application form. For more details read the full article here.
