Funds focused on impact
As the population and economy grow and technology transforms society, we face increasing challenges. However, these challenges provide tremendous opportunities as making the world more future-proof requires us to adopt new and innovative solutions.
Summa seeks to invest in and develop companies that provide these solutions. The binding element of Summa’s investment strategy is that our portfolio companies deliver products or services with a meaningful alignment and value creation strategy towards the UN’s SDG framework within three investment themes: Resource Efficiency, Changing Demographics and Tech-Enabled Transformation. The funds are supported by a diverse base of institutional investors.
