Our Vision
1. Founder First

We believe founders’ health and resilience are crucial to mission success. We are not only founder-friendly, we are unafraid to ask the tough questions and we’ll give clear advice. We’ll always value, and support, our founders and teams in their personal development efforts. 
We call this being ‘founder-first’ and it means sticking to the big picture, principles and impact instead of selling out. It’s at the core of everything we do.

1. Founder First
2. Impact Driven

We are on a mission to preserve life on earth. And to do so, we need impact-driven individuals aiming to solve our earth most urgent challenges. We see huge opportunities building ventures that pave the way for efficient manufacturing, sustainable food production, greener energies and mobilities.
 All our ventures contribute to this better future on earth and at least three Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

3. Long-Term Partnership

In it together, our own financial success is strictly linked to the impact of our portfolio companies. We manage €35 million impact capital and are proud to partner with some of the leading investors across Europe and beyond.
 We make our first investment in a company at an early stage. The typical involvement starts at around €500K and can grow up to a total of €2M+ over several rounds and stages of maturity.
