2021 Oak City Retreat: The Power of Investing to Change the World.

This post is part of a 5-part series highlighting some of the most impactful sessions from our inaugural retreat in the NC mountains in the spring of 2021. In our first year and given the COVID-related constraints, this was mostly a gathering of some foundations (staff + boards) and investment managers that we know well. As the retreat expands, we hope that it will be an encouragement to other foundations, endowments, and family offices to see the collective influence that capital can have on a broken world. We also hope it will be an encouragement to up and coming managers: that there are institutional investors excited to use capital to love our neighbors and bless the world.

Jason Myhre: The Power of Investing to Change the World

How do we change the world? Many think that the power to change the world is in the hands of world leaders or politicians. While they definitely have power to create change, is there a more efficient way to change the world?

Jason Myhre of Eventide Asset Management gives a compelling talk arguing that institutional investing is among one of the many concentrated centers of power that can influence the world.
