Catalytic Impact Partners is the investment advisor of the ECIIF II and has been created by FASE and CHI Impact Capital, two leading independent European Impact Advisors who have collaborated over many years. We believe capital is a powerful tool — but only when guided by purpose. We invest with conviction, to improve the wellbeing of people and the planet by helping impact ventures scale sustainably. For us, financial returns and positive impact are not opposites — they can go hand in hand to drive lasting change. Join us in shaping a future where purpose meets performance!

Bedrijvencentrum De Wolkammerij huisvest ruim 45 ondernemers en creatieve makers in 3 hallen en een voormalig kantoorgebouw (1950) van onze buur, Umicore. Je kan er terecht voor kantoren, industriële hallen, vergaderruimten en opslag. De Wolkammerij startte haar activiteit omstreeks 2000 als een initiatief voor sociale tewerkstelling, gericht op invoegbedrijven, maar richt zich sinds 10 jaar op de bouwsector in de brede zin. Onze aandeelhouders: Umicore, POM Antwerpen, Janssen Pharma, Moria, Trividend, ETAP, Group Intro (Levanto), Hefboom, KBC, SD Worx en Van Hout.
