About Blossom Investment Management
Blossom Investment Management, LLC is an independent investment firm that manages global growth portfolios. We help institutional and private investors achieve superior risk-adjusted returns by investing in clean, sustainable technologies and innovative alternative energy resources.
Blossom IM became a B Corporation to further its commitment to sustainability; we feel that it's important to incorporate our views on sustainability into the articles, the DNA, of the company.
At Blossom, we believe that companies that pursue sustainability goals are the ones that will change the world for the better, but they must be successful if they are to have an impact. That's why we evaluate companies by tough-minded investment fundamentals as well as sustainability criteria. We seek top quality companies, dominant market leaders that have strong business models, sound financials and astute managements with track records of generating revenue and earnings growth. These are the companies that will have the power to attract capital, reward investment and effect positive change.
The Change We Seek®
Blossom Investment Management's mission is to find commercial opportunities in the innovations and technologies that address the new challenges of resource scarcity and environmental degradation. It is Blossom‘s belief that a new kind of capitalism is emerging that will profit from the integration of emerging market demands, sustainable resources and corporate responsibility. Blossom Investment Management invests in the companies that embrace these new demands, since they are the ones that will create industry-changing innovations and leapfrog technologies.
• Blossom is also committed to reinvesting a portion of the fees it earns each year in social enterprises. The firm itself recently established Blossom Venture Foods, which is an education center where artisan food companies learn how to develop products and services using sustainable business practices.
