Full Disclaimer Todd Korol/The Globe and Mail Benevity Inc., the darling of Calgary’s expanding technology sector, has added global star power to its investor group, including rock star Bono and former U.S. vice-president Al Gore, one of the world’s most outspoken critics of Alberta’s oil sands. The celebrities are linked to two of the world’s leading social impact funds – private-equity giant TPG’s The Rise Fund, which Bono co-founded with Canadian Jeff Skoll, and Generation Investment Management, which is chaired by Mr. Gore. The two led a syndicate of institutions that includes Canadian pension-fund managers Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, Alberta Investment Management Corp. and Vestcor Inc., which invested between US$200-million and US$275-million in Benevity to buy a minority stake from controlling shareholder Hg Capital.
