Our approach

We are a “hands on” investor in our companies and projects. We contribute our know-how and help talented entrepreneurs identify new business opportunities.

Our team has extensive experience in every phase of cleantech project development. We focus on renewable energy projects where we can apply our know-how from the preparation phase, through permitting, to operation and exit. This allows us to deliver not only innovative solutions aimed at reducing the carbon footprint, but also to achieve an attractive return on investment.

Clean technologies bring a better future for us all. ESG principles are therefore part of our DNA, and so is our approach to employees, communities, and the environment. As part of this, we also support projects in the fields of culture, social welfare and sport, including our long-standing partnership with the Soudal Quick-Step Pro Cycling Team, a traditional Tour de France participant.

As part of our venture capital investments, we enter cleantech companies not only at the early stage of their growth, but also at the time of the segment’s early growth.In addition to capital, we bring other synergies to these companies, including the opportunity for applied development and testing of technologies within the Group’s portfolio.

We have been operating in the CEE region for more than 15 years, thanks to which we have a detailed knowledge of the environment and legislation. Several of our portfolio companies have been pioneers in their cleantech segment in these markets. We turn these years of experience, knowledge of the legislation and the environment into interesting investment opportunities.
