VPB Partnerships
WHERE CAPITAL MEETS COMMUNITY
At Venture Philanthropy Blueprint™, we believe bold impact is never built alone. Our partnerships bridge capital and capacity, connecting global networks to local solutions—so underinvested founders can thrive.
Featured Partnership
The Diaspora Network
Unleashing Diaspora Power to Fuel Caribbean Innovation
In collaboration with Entrepreneurs Across Borders (EAB), we’re launching The Diaspora Network—a global community of investors, operators, and mentors dedicated to scaling Caribbean ventures through diaspora-led insight and support.
“Rather than reinventing the wheel, we believe in partnerships that allow aligned organizations to lean into their strengths. VPB’s leadership in convening and amplifying impact-focused funders and supporters is a perfect complement to EAB’s work."
— Chris Cochran, Executive Director, EAB
“This initiative is about shifting diaspora engagement from symbolic gestures to strategic infrastructure—mentorship, investment, and systems that scale impact ventures across the Caribbean. That’s the promise of this movement—and it aligns deeply with the mission of VPB.”
— Alain Leroy, Founder & Managing Partner, VPB
Why Our Partnerships Work
We don’t just co-brand—we co-build. Every VPB partnership is grounded in three pillars:
1. Capital
We unlock philanthropic and catalytic capital to drive scale—not just survival.
2. Capacity
We deploy tools, systems, and operators to help founders execute with precision.
3. Community
We convene funders, mentors, and ecosystem leaders around a shared vision of equitable growth.
Spotlight Collaboration
Together with N-X Venture Studio, we’re scaling impact ventures beyond MVP into market-ready momentum.
Through a 6–12 month fellowship, underinvested founders receive the structure, tools, and support needed to grow with intention.
Let’s Build Together
