TIIP is seeking new leaders to help shape the future of impact investing in Canada.

The Table of Impact Investment Practitioners (TIIP) is seeking two (2) new Board Directors to help guide the next phase of growth for Canada’s impact investing ecosystem. 

TIIP is a pan-Canadian community of practice bringing together impact investment and social finance fund managers to strengthen practice, share knowledge, and advance the conditions needed for impact-first capital to serve communities across the country. Learn more about our work at www.tiip.ca
