In 2022, 60 Decibels who is our member at Nairobi Garage // Kilimani raised $8.8M from FPE Capital in their Series A funding round to enable listening at scale for global stakeholder engagement and impact measurement.
The company spurned out of impact investor Acumen in 2019 works with leading impact investors, companies, foundations, and nonprofits, including the Rockefeller Foundation, Flourish Ventures, Visa, Generation Investment Management, SAP, Unilever, and Primark, to listen directly to customers and suppliers to measure and benchmark social performance.
