Share
Sculpt Partners developed an impact reporting framework and a related narrative for an Electric Vehicle (EV) eco-system player in India to support its capital raising journey
Challenge
-
Fast-growing player in the two and three-wheeler electric mobility eco-system
-
Secured pre-Series A investment from a leading climate-tech investor a few years earlier; currently preparing towards a follow-on investment from global impact investors
-
Needed to set in place an impact reporting framework to communicate evidence-based impact narrative to prospective investors
Our Approach
- Chose IRIS+ standard based on rigorous evaluation of alternative impact reporting frameworks
- Identified material sustainability topics and developed impact metrics for each
- Baselined and forecast impact outcomes for the next five years
- Developed the impact scorecard for external reporting; crafted the forward-looking impact narrative for integration into the investor pitch deck
