  • Venture Partner

    2023

    Our investment focus is driven by unique pain points that we have recognized along the Agri-Food value chain from the perspective of the consumer, industrial players, and impact. We focus on companies with scalable, proprietary technology and demonstrated long-term positive impact on food systems, the environment and our health. Most improvements in FoodTech inherently have a direct impact on the environment given the harmful nature of the food industry today, and we believe we can make a difference by investing in the deployment of new technologies. Impact is an integral part of the due diligence and investment processes, and ongoing framework for portfolio management – we also support our portfolio companies on their impact journey
