We invest in mission-driven companies building an equitable transition to net-zero.
Our mission is to build a just transition through innovation. We back pre-seed companies building commercially viable business models which lower the costs, increase access, and drive prosperity in a low carbon economy for underserved communities, citizens and commerce.
THEMES WE FOCUS ON
clean industries
Developing a future industrial base which drives value in communities, produces green jobs, and limits waste.
agriculture & nature
Redesigning our food systems and relationships with our natural ecosystems to create impact on land and sea, reduce waste & prices to create thriving rural communities.
energy & the built environment
Constructing a fairer and more resilient future through a climate-smart and inclusive built environment.
sustainable living & moving
Rethinking how we live and move in to create equitable urban and rural environments.
A regenerative future economy requires systems change. We seek founders building solutions for a more equitable society, environment and economy.
our impact focus
We see impact as a source of long-term value, not a trade-off. We actively manage and measure the social and environmental outcomes of our investments.
Backing diverse founders
We actively seek to invest in diverse management teams and those committed to building great teams, bringing gender, ethnicity and socio-economic backgrounds together with parity and performance at the core.
Driving a just transition
We invest through an impact-first lens that goes beyond carbon, focusing on broader societal and community outcomes. Our approach is aligned with the Impact Investing Institute’s Just Transition Criteria and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Embedding mission
We support our portfolio to embed impact and mission into governance and company building activity—aligning financial, environmental, and social goals from day one. More widely, we support impactful commercialisation helping work with local partners, raise non-dilutive capital, and reach first customers.
