What we look for

​

Sustainable Technologies Fund is dedicated to support entrepreneurs building great companies.

We, as a team, combine more than 60 years of venture capital, management consulting and

sustainability experience. However, for us to succeed in helping entrepreneurial teams, we know

from experience that the team, the technology and the market must have the following characteristics:

​

The Team

​

 - Relevant experience from industry sectors and in building growth companies

 - The energy and drive that are needed to achieve extraordinary growth

 - The network and personality needed to attract and build a successful organization

 - The ability to function as “a team”, i.e. personalities and skill sets that compliment each other 

 - Be able to formulate (on a napkin) and communicate (in an elevator) the company’s mission       

 

The Technology

​

 - Proven and scalable

 - Have outstanding price/performance compared with alternatives

 - Offer opportunities to continuously improve price/performance over time

 - Have a clear likelihood to be the winning standard

 - Make sense from a sustainability perspective

​

The Market

 

 - The market opportunity should be global, large and rapidly growing

 - Customers should be easy to identify and a chosen business model should be attractive

 - Customers should be willing to try new technologies if they offer outstanding price/performance
