    Description:

    CEI Ventures manages socially responsible venture capital funds. The company was founded in 1994 to mobilize private capital markets while advancing social goals. The firm manages balanced equity portfolios, diversified by geography, industry, stage of business development and social benefits. Often staged through multiple financings, target portfolio company investments will generally range from $250,000 to $1 million. Coastal Enterprises (CEI) was founded in 1977 as a private, 501(c)(3) nonprofit Community Development Corporation (CDC) and is certified by the US Treasury as a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI). Headquartered in Wiscasset, Maine, CEI's mission is to create economically and environmentally healthy communities in which all people, especially those with low incomes, can reach their full potential. CEI organized CEI Ventures as a separate for-profit subsidiary to further this important goal. Over $60 million has been raised in five funds.
