How we create sustainable growth

Our company operates in the field of sustainable finance with the goal of promoting business models with a high environmental and social impact. We strongly believe that the financial sector has the responsibility of evaluating and acknowledging the impact it generates through its operations rather than just focusing on the risk-return trade-off.
FOCUS
We focus our work on SMEs that have a sustainability-oriented business model and that can be scalable and profitable. As a highly active investor we leverage our consultancy, management and financially-skilled team to shape these small businesses into companies with a solid organizational structure, that will be able to lead the change we need in the production, processing and distribution system.
