MAY 9, 2022


CoPeace is building a portfolio of carefully selected for-profit companies with measurable social and environmental impact. This is the company’s first capital campaign targeting accredited investors, following a series of equity crowdfunding campaigns designed to democratize the investing process.

“We are excited about launching our new capital campaign on the SVX platform, for multiple reasons, but foremost are the shared mission alignment and the ease of use for investors to participate,” said Craig Jonas, CoPeace founder and CEO. “I have personally invested through the SVX platform which gives me great confidence that this will be an excellent fit for CoPeace as we keep the fundraising momentum going following our successful crowdfunding campaign, and over $3.5 million raised to date.”

SVX is a nonprofit organization registered with securities regulators as an Exempt Market Dealer (EMD). SVX has partners and operations across Canada, as well as in the US and Mexico and provides a suite of services enabling impact across a variety of sectors for investors, organizations, funds, and enterprises. The SVX US platform is a partnership of Cutting Edge Capital and SVX Canada.

“SVX is thrilled to bring the CoPeace offering onto the SVX US platform,” said Kevin Taylor, Associate Director, SVX Canada. “CoPeace’s mission to democratize investing while positively impacting society and the environment aligns perfectly with our vision at SVX. SVX US makes it easier than ever to invest in private market offerings that deliver meaningful change alongside the potential for financial returns. We’re excited to make impact investing accessible to all investors who are increasingly interested in aligning their investments with their values.”

SVX US is user-friendly, featuring detailed issuer profiles, a transaction engine, and capacity to make debt and equity investments across a range of impact areas including climate, food, health, equity, housing, and community real estate.

“CoPeace has been a longtime client and partner with Cutting Edge, which is exactly why we’re pleased to continue our relationship by launching their offering on the SVX US platform,” said John Katovich, Co-Founder, SVX US and Principal at Cutting Edge Capital. “Impact-focused investors have already shown their willingness to invest on SVX US and have expressed a strong interest in returning to find more like-minded issuers such as CoPeace. Cutting Edge has long been entrenched in the impact and alternative investments space, and we are committed to supporting a thriving impact investor community. We look forward to supporting CoPeace’s capital raise on the SVX US platform.”

CoPeace and SVX share a common vision: a world where all investments have a positive impact. Both companies are working to help organizations and investors match money with meaning.
