ABOUT US
Our mission.
Becoming a global reference on how to make industries sustainable and circular by doing it!
The goal is to have a genuine impact on transitioning towards a more sustainable economy. By focusing on removing obstacles for more circular materials through the creation and/or growth of specific solution companies, we can substantially reduce the overall carbon footprint, plastic waste pollution and improper use of feedstocks. And we want to do this is in an economically viable and profitable way.

Partner
Ief Winckelmans
Ief is currently the managing director of Impactvista Alliance, Chapter Chair of The Explorers Club Western Europe and President of Ocean Impact Alliance.
He started a VC funded ICT company in the mid-nineties, transitioned into venture capital, assisted Huawei with its launch in Europe and built a HNWI services company in China.
Working in and with China during its rapid industrial growth was extremely exhilarating but confronted with the massive scale of the environmental destruction, he could no longer stand at the sideline.
Assisting a Chinese family with setting up a cleantech VC fund in Luxembourg, he realized there was no shortage in capital for eco-innovation, the real challenge was finding fundable projects and avoiding greenwashing.
This led to the founding of Ocean Impact Alliance and after a restructuring and rebranding to Impactvista Alliance, a network of Universities, R&D centers, ecopreneurs, investors and philanthropists, finding, developing and implementing transformational solutions for the biggest environmental challenges of our time.
