ETF Partners (The Environmental Technologies Fund)

ETF Partners is Europe's original venture capital firm dedicated to sustainability and impact investing, founded on the conviction that entrepreneurship and innovation are critical in addressing the global challenges presented by the climate crisis. The firm invests in the 'intelligence layer' that enables modern infrastructure, backing fast-growing innovative companies across Europe that deliver positive environmental impact through digitally-led sustainability. ETF Partners focuses on five core investment themes: future mobility, energy transition, green connectivity, responsible consumer, and sustainable food. The firm seeks companies that demonstrate commercial success, strong growth potential, and possess a durable competitive advantage. ETF Partners emphasizes that impact investing goes beyond ESG screening by focusing on intent, purpose, and real outcomes, particularly in innovative, fast-growing companies with the potential to make a hugely positive impact through the products they are developing. The firm is cautious of large engineering projects that could take decades to commercialize, instead focusing on areas where they can make an impact quickly through solutions that can be scaled at pace and where they can measure the difference within the lifetime of their investment holding period.
