Leading global impact investment firm Developing World Markets (DWM), an investment manager with more than two decades of experience and a pioneer in modern impact investing, has opened a new office in Tbilisi, Georgia. DWM’s new, on- the-ground presence in a strategically valuable region reflects the firm’s deep commitment to Central Asia and the Caucasus.
 
“We chose Georgia as part of our larger strategy to expand our presence in the regions where we invest,” said Co-Managing Partner Edward Marshall. “We have a 15-year history investing in Georgia and the broader region, and our investment portfolio in the region is growing. Opening this office is a logical extension of our investment activities and reflective of our commitment to the region.”
