Global Advisory Council

Global Advisory Council

One of the most distinguishing features of the VentureWave Capital approach is the active engagement of our investors in our Global Advisory Council, chaired by former Taoiseach Enda Kenny, supported by our Deputy Chairs: Angela Moore in North America, Stephen Vernon in Europe and Stanley Quek in Asia Pacific.

Our Global Advisory Council is comprised of our investors who are leading entrepreneurs, technologists, investors and inspirational leaders who believe in Impact Investing.

They actively engage and encourage, inspire and advise, and lend their own experience and expertise whenever they can – in particular at the Global Advisory Council Annual Meeting.

Members of the Global Advisory Council are invited to promote Ireland as a global centre for innovation and Impact Investing.

They are providing their time and talent to advance our common mission.

“Coming together is a beginning,

staying together is progress,

working together is success.”
