OUR STORY

What is the impact of your work?

For co-founders Raya and Wolfgang, this question sparked a profound transformation. Leaving successful careers in consulting and banking, they set out to prove that business can drive both prosperity and positive change. Their journey from grassroots impact work to leading global investments in sustainable ventures shaped their vision for Sagana, which continues to grow today.

SAGANA means abundance in Tagalog, which is the core of who we are. We’ve taken this ethos all over the globe, into the homes and offices of entrepreneurs, business leaders, and innovators to find and fund solutions for the world’s biggest challenges.
