History

Generation was founded in April 2004 by a group of seven founding partners led by Al Gore and David Blood. The firm began investing client money in April 2005. Its goal was integrating the disciplines of finance and sustainability. The firm places environmental and social factors at the core of its strategy.Шаблон:Citation needed

Later in 2005, Generation helped to establish the Enhanced Analytics Initiative to support sell-side research into long-term sustainability risks and opportunities. One of the founding partners joined the initial working group responsible for bringing the UNPRI to life.Шаблон:Citation needed

In November 2007, Generation and Kleiner Perkins announced a global collaboration to "find, fund and accelerate green business, technology and policy solutions with the greatest potential to help solve the current climate crisis." As part of the collaboration, prominent Kleiner Perkins partner John Doerr joined Generation's Advisory Board. In this year, Generation also attended the Bellagio Summit, where the term 'impact investment' was coined.

In 2014, Generation launched Climate Solutions Fund II and the foundation partnered with George Serafeim. In 2015, Generation launched the Sustainability Insights Series, releasing "Environmental Intelligence" and "The Power Industry in Transition." In the same year, Generation became a Certified B Corp.Шаблон:Citation needed
