Frank's Friday

Thomas is a versatile, enthusiastic doer with lots of life energy. He is always driven by a deep curiosity about the human mind. He studied psychology and artificial intelligence and wrote and produced theater productions. As a founder of several IT companies, he has always been fascinated by the unconscious processes that shape people's thoughts, words, and actions.

Now, as an IFS practitioner, he has found a new passion: helping people, including himself, open their hearts and reconnect. In the language of IFS, this means growing Self-energy in the world.

Thomas is an active impact investor in Europe and Africa, dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs striving for a better world. He organizes IFS retreats at Domaine Lescure, his estate in southern France, which he is restoring single-handedly. In addition, Thomas is a certified Forest Therapy Guide with ANFT and a breath coach.

Frank is one of the founding fathers of impact investing in Europe after he first learned about it in the United States in the early 1990s. He has now a more than 30-year track record of investing his capital for good.
 
In 1994, he started Pymwymic, the “Put Your Money Where Your Meaning is Community” with European wealth holders who invest with impact. Since then, Pymwymic has helped to bring hundreds of family investors towards impact, and as a community helped to fund 50+ companies such as Ben & Jerry’s and Change.org.
 
Frank has launched many other initiatives to develop impact investing in Europe. He is a founding member of SVN-Europe and a long-term member of Investor’s Circle. He serves on several international boards.
 
He continues to Put His Money Where His Mouth Is, as an investor and advisor in multiple impact enterprises and initiatives. His passion is sailing and he loves nature.

PYM is an independent foundation that connects and guides wealth owners to invest their capital consciously for a better world. We are a peer-to-peer community of families, philanthropists, individual investors, family offices, and foundations.
We believe in the power of money as a force for good. That is why we promote listed and non-listed impact investing. You can invest successfully in businesses, directly or through funds, that have a purpose beyond profit.

We focus on investors in the Benelux, but we welcome everyone who shares our goals to join us.
