Our investment themes

Circularity

In a world where resource scarcity is becoming a pressing issue, companies that adopt circular economy principles can thrive. By rethinking water access and security, fostering reuse business models, optimizing product design and creating circular loops for waste and water recycling, we can invest in companies generating attractive financial value, while reducing environmental impact and preserving people health.

Sustainable Food

Feeding a growing global population while protecting our planet’s resources is one of the great challenges and opportunities of our time. Today, we waste a third of all food produced, while demand shifts toward more carbon-intensive diets, putting pressure on land, water, and biodiversity.

Energy Transition

Demand for power in developed economies is rising rapidly. This is driven by higher living standards, increased electrification, and new forms of economic activity. Meeting this demand – while addressing climate change and ensuring energy security – depends on the availability of low-cost, reliable, and resilient sustainable energy.

Tech-Enabled Resilience

Digitization is the backbone of our hyper-connected world, powering work, learning, and vital services. While we enjoy the benefits of cloud platforms and real-time analytics, each layer of connectivity introduces new vulnerabilities. Cybercrime costs the global economy over USD 10 trillion annually, and data protection regulations grow more complex. Fragile healthcare infrastructures face surging demand. Unchecked, these threats can cascade through organizations, industries, and even entire societies.
