Morgan Stanley Inclusive Sustainable Ventures (MSIV) – Investing in a Better Future

Morgan Stanley Inclusive Sustainable Ventures (MSIV) is a strategic initiative dedicated to advancing inclusive, sustainable innovation that tackles some of the most complex challenges of our time — from climate change and clean energy to equitable access to essential services and economic opportunity.

This programme reflects Morgan Stanley’s commitment to long-term environmental and social impact, supporting mission-driven companies, founders, and ventures that aim to deliver both financial returns and measurable positive impact on communities and the planet.
