Moonshot 2025: Where Ideas Ignite is a high-energy gathering spotlighting bold founders, investors, and business leaders driving Baltimore’s future. Moonshot highlights entrepreneurs building social enterprises that strengthen communities and shift markets.

Ignite Capital, in collaboration with Innovation Works, supports Baltimore social enterprises in under-resourced communities by helping them attract investment and fuel long-term neighbourhood success.

WHAT IS IMPACT INVESTING?

Impact investing is an investment approach that intentionally seeks to generate measurable social benefits alongside financial returns. This practice demonstrates how private capital is a powerful force for positive change, addressing urgent challenges that neither government nor philanthropy can solve alone. By uniting mission- and values-driven enterprise with financial discipline, impact investing offers investors a pragmatic way to create value for both shareholders and society, positioning capital as a driver of sustainable, systemic change.

Looking ahead, inspired by the power of social entrepreneurship and impact investing, Ignite Capital’s vision is for Baltimore to emerge as a model of progress, lighting the way toward a prosperous future for all residents.
