Elemér’s impact philosophy: While searching for the right path, I realized that impact investing isn’t a tool to "save the world" or a shortcut to financial independence. Instead, impact investing is simply a smarter, a regenerative version of capitalism.

Capitalism itself isn’t inherently good or bad; it’s a system that prioritizes profit as the most important outcome. However, capitalism often falls short because it treats resource regeneration as an external responsibility, not one that businesses should inherently take on. This is self-deception.

The world’s only unlimited resource is human potential. And that’s the key factor—if we continue to exploit human capital without regard for its well-being, we systematically undermine the most valuable ingredient for long-term growth. Profit and growth aren’t inherently evil. What’s crucial is ensuring that the regeneration of both human and natural resources is viewed as equally important as profit. I do believe that by nurturing companies that are solving real social and environmental problems in measurable and profitable ways, We creating a small, replicable pattern for change. My first love was my wife, with whom I’ve made the best investments of my life—our three children. My second love is impact investing. Now, my goal is to help nurture the first being, CEE-based 'impact unicorn,' which refers to an enterprise that positively impacts the lives of one billion people.
