Bloom Impact Investing’s vision is a world where a carbon-free economy allows people and the planet to thrive.
Co-founders, Camille Socquet-Clerc and Bertrand Caron, established Bloom in 2019 because they wanted to fix climate change at scale and wanted to make investing in renewable energy projects and cleantech accessible to everyone, not just the ultra-wealthy.
