Corinne Heijn
Sunday, April 12th | Breakout: How Do You Tell Your Children?
Corinne Heijn has been active in impact investing for more than 25 years — long before the term became widely used. Her journey began with her connection to Frank van Beuningen and the early Pymwymic community, where she started exploring how capital could align with personal values.
Over time, Corinne developed her own approach to investing, guided by a continuous search for what truly drives her decisions. Building a trusted network of like-minded people has been central to this process, allowing her to invest with both conviction and purpose.
Today, Corinne is involved in independent asset firms, direct investments, and impact funds, supporting entrepreneurs and initiatives that contribute to systemic change. Her investment interests include themes such as gender equality, cultural diversity, Africa, nature-based solutions, and disruptive innovations.
For Corinne, impact investing is deeply personal — a journey that has brought both meaning and a sense of adventure, including the creation of a global network of women entrepreneurs.
During the breakout session "How Do You Tell Your Children?" Corinne Heijn and Frank van Beuningen explore how families can engage the next generation in conversations about wealth, values, and responsibility, and how to pass on both capital and purpose.
