Goals / Remit
Based in Brussels, EVPA formed in 2004 as a non-profit, membership association gathering organisations focused on venture philanthropy (VP) and social investment (SI). As the field evolved, EVPA has informally become 'Impact Europe' encompassing organisations interested in impact investing. Despite this change, Impact Europe's north start remains investing for impact, guided by intentionality, additionality, and measurability.
EVPA’s mission is to enable European-based capital providers to accelerate positive and lasting social and environmental change at scale through increased resources, collaboration, expertise and facilitating an enabling policy framework.
Today, we gather almost 350 members and partners from 30 countries, mainly based in Europe. Our diverse community includes social impact funds, grant-making foundations, private equity and professional service firms, financial institutions, philanthropy advisors, banks and business schools.Main EU files targeted

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
