We are Pale blue dot. An early stage VC fund backing visionary founders building future-shaping businesses. We invest in diverse founders building the future that we want to live in. For us, climate is our “why” and a value alignment that we seek with our founders. We believe that technology, both software and hardware, plays a part in building a better future, and we want to back the scalable companies that can take us there. We invest in early stage companies with radical potential and a future-first mindset. Investment criteria - **Fund I (2020):** €87M - **Fund II (2024):** €93M - **Stage:** Pre-seed & Seed - **Ticket:** €0.5 - €2M - **Ownership:** Lead (10%+) - **Region:** Europe & US - **Industry:** All tech Climate change is the greatest macroeconomic challenge of our time, reshaping every aspect of how we live, work, eat, and move. It has become the lens through which we view — and prepare for the future. This global crisis also presents an unprecedented opportunity: to invest in the world we want to live in. The next generation of billion-dollar companies will be built with climate in mind. This is no longer optional — it’s imperative. We invest under three horizontal themes: Optimise We believe that every aspect of our lives will change, forcing us to improve, digitalise, and decarbonise every industry and sector. This includes optimising our food supply chains, energy systems, transportation, industries, textile production, and many more. Adapt Technologies that help communities and industries become more resilient to climate impacts. This includes climate risk, resilience, and mitigation. Pioneer We don’t believe we have all the technologies or markets to secure our future. We are looking for breakthrough innovations that redefine what’s possible for a sustainable future. Why We founded Pale blue dot in 2020 as three former tech entrepreneurs driven to build a better kind of venture capital fund — one that backs ambitious founders tackling humanity’s biggest challenges, while leading with kindness and humility. Our diverse backgrounds span from the humanities to tech, and we’ve each built multiple companies across Europe and the US. Since our own startup journeys, we’ve gone on to invest in hundreds of startups and have created accelerator programmes to support founders and help them grow. Our beliefs as a fund **Diversity drives better outcomes ** We envision a more equitable and inclusive world — and we know that diverse organisations don’t just reflect that vision; they also perform better. **Impact and profit can grow together ** We invest in opportunities where positive impact scales alongside business growth. Financial success and meaningful change don't have to be mutually exclusive — they can go hand in hand. **Kindness and ambition go hand in hand ** We believe in treating each other with respect while striving for excellence. The journey matters just as much as the destination. **Partner-led firms make better early-stage investments ** Without hierarchy, investment teams are more independent, collaborative, and willing to take bold, contrarian bets. **The best early-stage VCs are former entrepreneurs** They’ve built companies themselves and understand the early-stage journey. That shared experience builds stronger, more meaningful relationships with founders. **Climate is the greatest humanitarian challenge of our time** Among many global issues, we believe climate change is the most urgent — and the largest shift humanity collectively has to tackle. It’s why we’ve made it our core focus. This financing is made possible through financial backing of the Swedish government-owned company [Saminvest AB ](https://saminvest.se/) --- --- title: "Contact" url: "https://paleblue.vc/contact" type: "page" description: "We are Pale blue dot, a seed-stage venture capital firm that backs the most exciting climate tech startups across Europe and the US." --- # Contact We are Pale blue dot, a seed-stage venture capital firm that backs the most exciting climate tech startups across Europe and the US.

Our contact details can be found in section 7. **1.8 Particularly on sensitive data** We carry out certain surveys related to diversity. For statistical purposes, we ask the participants of such surveys to specify certain sensitive personal data (such as data revealing ethnic origin, religious beliefs, or sexual orientation). Thus, we may process such sensitive personal data. Before processing any such sensitive personal data, we first ask for your consent pursuant to Article 9.2(a) GDPR. When processing sensitive personal data, we are cautious and apply particular safeguards, such as limiting the access to the sensitive personal data to one single individual within our organization, aggregating data and anonymizing it. Please note that we may use third parties, such as Google Forms, to collect and aggregate your sensitive personal data, such third parties are data processors and by agreement bound to protect the personal data in accordance with our standards, to process the personal data only for our account and for the purpose which you have given your consent. **2. With whom do we share your personal data?** If we process your personal data pursuant to section 1, some or all of such personal data may be shared with certain specific recipients. When we share your personal data, we ensure that the recipient processes them in accordance with this privacy notice, by, e.g. entering into Data Transfer Agreements or Personal Data Processing Agreements with the recipients. The agreements ensure that your data are processed in accordance with the GDPR and this privacy policy. Your personal data may in certain cases be anonymized and aggregated with other personal data before being shared. We would like to emphasize that we do not sell your personal data to any third party. **2.1 Categories of recipients with whom we may share your personal data** **2.1.1 ****Group companies and portfolio companies** *Recipients:* Companies within the Pale blue dot group (including investment funds managed or advised by us), situated within the EU/EEA. Portfolio companies of the Pale blue dot group, situated within the EU/EEA and the U.S.A. *Purpose and legal basis:* This may be required for us to evaluate an investment opportunity, when investing in a company or when monitoring an existing portfolio company. We have a legitimate interest in being able to evaluate such investments and companies prior to carrying them out, carrying out KYC checks, as well as monitoring our investment in them. If the sharing of your personal data is necessary to fulfil that interest, and that interest overrides your right not to have your data processed, the sharing may be carried out on the legal basis of legitimate interest. **2.1.2 Partners outside the Pale blue dot group** *Recipients:* Business partners outside the Pale blue dot group. These business partners are situated within the EU/EEA and in the U.S.A. *Purpose and legal basis:* We may need to share your personal data with the partners with whom we work closely, for the purpose of evaluating an investment opportunity, when investing in a company,  or when monitoring an existing investment in a company. This only takes place to the extent necessary for them to fulfil their obligations relating to an investment due diligence, or assistance in relation to investor reporting. However, they may not process or use your personal data for any other purposes. Sharing may also occur in some cases to partners evaluating a potential co-investment or follow-on investment in a company when you have requested us to do so. Thus, sharing with partners outside the Group can take place on the legal basis of performance of contract or consent. **2.1.3 Service providers** *Recipients:* We have agreements with other companies that perform certain services on our behalf. These services include, e.g. providing newsletters to subscribers via e-mail, providing invitations and registrations to attendees at events organised by us, or to collect and aggregate your sensitive personal data. These companies gain access to your personal data to the extent necessary for them to fulfil their assignment, but they may not use or share the data for other purposes. These service providers are situated both within the EU/EEA and in the U.S.A. *Purpose and legal basis:* We sometimes need to access the services of other companies. In such cases, we have a legitimate interest of being able to access these. If the sharing of your personal data is necessary to fulfil that interest, and that interest overrides your right not to have your data processed, sharing may take place on the legal basis of legitimate interest. However, these companies may not process or use your personal for any other purposes than to perform the services pursuant to the agreement. **2.1.4 Authorities** *Recipients:* The Swedish Police Authority, the Swedish Enforcement Authority, the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority or other authorities or courts of law. *Purpose and legal basis:* By law, we are obliged to share personal data with certain authorities, for example under the Act on Measures against Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing (Sw*. lagen om åtgärder mot penningtvätt och finansiering av terrorism*). Sharing may also occur in some cases, when you have requested us to do so. Thus, sharing to authorities can be carried out on the legal basis of compliance with legal obligations or consent. **2.1.5 ****Third party in corporate transaction** *Recipients:* If we, or a significant part of our business, were to be sold to or integrated with a third party, your personal data may be passed on to the new owner of the business. Thereafter, the new owner of the business will be the data controller of your personal data. *Purpose and legal basis:* We may have a legitimate interest of being able to sell our business to, or integrate our business with, a third party. Thus, sharing your personal data to such parties may be carried out on the legal basis of our legitimate interest. **2.2 ****Objections to the sharing of your personal data** You have the right to object to the sharing of your personal data, due to circumstances in your individual case. More information about your right to object can be found in section 4.5. **3. Where do we process your personal data?** The transfers described above may be made to recipients in Member States of the EU/EEA, and to the U.S.A., as Pale blue dot has engaged certain American service providers.

We ensure that appropriate safeguards are put in place for these transfers.

If you want to read more about the right to object – please see **[here](https://www.imy.se/privatperson/dataskydd/dina-rattigheter/att-gora-invandningar/)**. **4.6 Right to restriction** You can request that the processing of your personal data should be restricted, for example if you do not think that the information we have about you is correct or if you believe that the processing is unlawful. Such request can also be made during the time we investigate whether our legitimate interests override your interest of privacy when you object to the processing (see more about this under section 4.5 above). If you want to read more about the right to restriction – please see **[here](https://www.imy.se/privatperson/dataskydd/dina-rattigheter/begransning/)**. **4.7 Right to transmit personal data (data portability) ** You have the right to receive your personal data, that you have provided to us (in case the legal basis for our processing is consent or performance of a contract), in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. However, this presupposes that the processing takes place by automated means (i.e. not in physical form on paper). If technically possible, and you wish to do so, we may also transmit such personal data to another data controller. If you want to read more about the right to transmit personal data (data portability) – please see **[here](https://www.imy.se/privatperson/dataskydd/dina-rattigheter/flytta-dina-personuppgifter/)**. **4.8 Right to withdraw your consent ** You can withdraw the whole or part of the consent you have given at any time, with effect as from the withdrawal (i.e. the processing of personal data that we have carried out before the withdrawal will not be affected).

In the case of direct marketing via e-mail, a withdrawal can be carried out through a link attached in each such e-mail. **4.9 Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority ** You can lodge a complaint to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (or with another supervisory authority) if you believe that our processing of your personal data is not in accordance with applicable legislation. If you want to read more about the right to lodge a complaint – please see **[here](https://www.imy.se/privatperson/utfora-arenden/lamna-ett-klagomal/)**. **4.10 Requirements for exercising your rights** To protect your privacy, we may (if necessary) require you to prove your identity when you contact us to exercise your rights.

Cookies and other tracking technologies** We do not use cookies or similar tracking technologies on our website. If this changes in the future, we will update this policy accordingly. **6.

When assessing an investment opportunity, positive and negative impacts are considered. If any red flags or risks are discovered and the investment committee deems such unmanageable, the fund will not go forward with the investment. No consideration of Principal Adverse Impacts (“PAI”) of Investment Decisions on Sustainability Factors The Fund Manager has elected to refrain from considering PAI in relation to its investments. The Fund Manager takes into account that it invests in young companies, where resources are limited and data is often incomplete or unavailable. Further, the Fund Manager has chosen to focus on sustainability matters that are not necessarily measured by PAI, for example tailored KPIs relevant to the specific business of each portfolio company and each portfolio company’s attitude towards ESG matters. Currently, it is the view of the Fund Manager that its policies and processes in place are proportionate, sufficient and adapted to its operations and investment focus as well as strategy. The Fund Manager will reassess whether it shall elect to start considering PAI, when appropriate. Remuneration Policy Currently, the Fund Manager does not have a remuneration policy in place.

Jointly The “Funds” Summary The Funds are considered to be ’Article 8’ fund type products under the Sustainable Finance Disclosures Regulation (“SFDR”). The financial products promote environmental characteristics. No sustainable investment objective These financial products promote environmental characteristics, but do not have as its objective sustainable investment. Environmental characteristics of the financial product The environmental characteristics the Funds promote is the direct or indirect reduction, reversal, or preparation for the effects of climate change, or the enablement for others to do so. Investment strategy The Funds’ strategy is to invest in companies with a positive climate impact that directly or indirectly reduces, reverses, or prepares for the effects of climate change, or enables others to do so. Good governance of the investee companies is first assessed during the due diligence process. Thereafter, it is monitored through traditional governance structures such as board and/or shareholder meetings, informal update meetings with the portfolio companies in addition to quarterly reporting. Proportion of investments The Funds will allocate its capital in companies that promote any of the environmental characteristics (reduce, reverse and/or prepare). The Funds do not commit to make any investments that qualify as environmentally sustainable (*i.e.* taxonomy-aligned) under Regulation (EU) 2020/852. Monitoring of environmental characteristics All portfolio companies are required to set up quantitative climate KPIs (one or more) that directly relate to the core problem that they are solving, and these are reported to the Funds and further to the LPs on a quarterly basis. Additionally, six months after the initial investment, and annually thereafter, ESG scorecards are completed for all companies in the portfolio, which are used to keep track of the initial understanding of the portfolio company. Methodologies Each potential portfolio company is assessed for its climate impact potential before receiving an investment from a Fund. This is done internally by the relevant Fund. A climate thesis is developed for each investment which is mapped to the Funds impact categories (*i.e.,* reduce, reverse and prepare). Data sources and processing A main source of data is information provided by companies through pitch decks, DD questionnaires and reports. All data is processed internally by the Funds and might be reviewed by external parties, if needed. Limitations to methodologies and data Limitations to methodologies and data sources are expected to mainly be due to a lack of precise data from portfolio companies/incomplete data. Incomplete data refers to missing data, which can occur due to non-response, incomplete surveys or questionnaires, or other reasons. Due diligence All investment decisions are based on commercial, financial, legal, and ESG due diligence, as well as estimated return and key risk components. During the due diligence process, all potential portfolio companies are asked to complete a detailed ESG questionnaire to give insights into the materiality of ESG risks. Potential portfolio companies are also asked to complete a separate self-assessment ESG scorecard. The scorecard is used in deciding whether there is enough alignment for the company to join the portfolio. An internal assessment is also filled in by the investment lead. The investment lead will thereafter review the scorecard six months after the investment and then annually. Engagement policies Following an investment decision, the Funds will actively engage with portfolio companies to agree on impact KPIs (one or more) to be reported quarterly. Further, the Funds may engage with the portfolio companies through board engagement, participation in shareholder meetings and other dialogue. The Funds generally require the portfolio companies to take active ownership of their ESG. Attainment of the sustainable investment objective No reference benchmark has been designated to attain the sustainable investment objective.

Environmental characteristics of the financial product The Funds promote environmental characteristics that are the direct or indirect reduction, reversal, or preparation for the effects of climate change, or enablement for others to do so. The aim is to invest in companies with a positive climate impact that is closely tied to the economic success of the company that fit into any of the aforementioned 3 categories, further described below. 1. Reduce: These companies are creating new business models that reduce emissions and technologies that do better with fewer materials, waste, animal products, or energy. For example, green transport, energy efficiency software, and transitioning the food system to a more sustainable future. 2. Reverse: These are technologies and approaches that remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and reverse our warming trajectory. Examples include nature-based solutions like seaweed and reforestation and novel industrial technologies that will transform CO2 into materials we already use. 3. Prepare: Because of the damage that has already been done to our planet, the world is set to face enormous challenges. The reality is that we all need to prepare for a new future with technologies that will help us deal with mass climate migration and natural weather disasters, as well as ensure food and water security. Examples include climate risk data and forest fire prevention. Investment strategy The Funds’ promote the chosen environmental characteristics by having a strategy to invest in companies with a positive climate impact that directly or indirectly reduce, reverse, or prepare for the effects of climate change, or enable others to do so. The investment strategy used to attain the environmental characteristics include: 1. The Funds exclude certain industries and business operations deemed as undesirable, such as  tobacco production, casinos and gambling. 2. Each company is individually assessed and receives an individual score based on their perceived potential climate impact (both positive and negative). The scores are considered when making the final investment decision by the investment committee. 3. The Funds employ an extensive ESG due diligence process before a company is asked to join the portfolio. Investee companies are asked to complete self-assessment ESG scorecards which are used to assess their value alignment before joining the portfolio, in addition to an ESG due diligence questionnaire. 4. At investment, six months after the first investment, and thereafter annually, the Funds complete internal ESG scorecards for each portfolio company. The scorecards are used to measure the attainment of the portfolio companies’ ESG objectives. 5. During the ownership phase, each portfolio company reports individually tailored climate KPIs (one or more) relevant for the company’s business activity and standardized social KPIs. All are collected quarterly. Good governance of the investee companies is first assessed during the due diligence process. Thereafter, it is monitored through traditional governance structures such as board and/or shareholder meetings, as well as more informal update meetings with the portfolio companies. Certain aspects of good governance practices (such as management team diversity) are reported to the Funds quarterly. Further, the Funds request additional ESG data to be reported on an annual basis (when deemed needed). Proportion of investments The Funds will allocate its capital in companies that promote environmental characteristics in accordance with the binding elements of the investment strategy. The Funds do not commit to make any sustainable investments. The Funds may use derivative instruments and other hedging techniques to protect against adverse movements in currency and/or interest rates. In that case, those derivatives will not promote environmental characteristics; however, the investments kept for liquidity arrangements and hedging techniques (*e.g.,* cash, cash equivalents and derivatives) are not expected to cause any significant harm. The Funds do not commit to any minimum level of alignment with the EU Taxonomy. Since the Funds will invest in start-up and pre-seed companies (including companies that are not EU Taxonomy eligible), it will not, beforehand, be possible to assess what share, if any, of the investment that will be aligned with the EU Taxonomy. The minimum extent of Taxonomy alignment is thus 0%. The minimum share of investments in transitional and enabling activities is 0%. However, transitional and enabling technologies are within the investment scope of the Funds. The Funds may therefore make investments in such technologies. Monitoring of environmental characteristics All portfolio companies are required to set up at least one quantitative climate KPIs that directly relates to the core business of the company. These are reported to the Funds and to the Funds’ investors on a quarterly basis. Six months after the initial investment, and annually thereafter, ESG scorecards are completed for all companies in the portfolio. The ESG scorecards are used to keep track of the initial understanding of the portfolio’s alignment with the relevant Fund’s values and its development as the portfolio matures. The reporting of climate KPIs and the scorecards are used as control mechanisms to help identify areas where the portfolio might need help. Methodologies Each potential portfolio company is assessed for its climate impact potential before receiving an investment from any of the Funds. This assessment is completed internally by the relevant Fund. A climate thesis is developed for each initial investment in a company which is mapped to the Funds’ impact categories as defined below. The Funds assess which category/ies the investee company fits into before making an investment: 1. Reduce: These companies are creating new business models that reduce emissions and technologies that do better with fewer materials, waste, animal products, or energy. For example, green transport, energy efficiency software, and transitioning the food system to a more sustainable future. 2. Reverse: These are technologies and approaches that remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and reverse our warming trajectory. Examples include nature-based solutions like seaweed and reforestation and novel industrial technologies that will transform CO2 into materials we already use. 3. Prepare: Because of the damage that has already been done to our planet, the world is set to face enormous challenges. The reality is that we all need to prepare for a new future with technologies that will help us deal with mass climate migration and natural weather disasters, as well as ensure food and water security. Examples include climate risk data and forest fire prevention. Data sources and processing The data sources used to promote the environmental characteristics of this product are: 1. Pitch decks and interviews with portfolio companies, 2. Databases and articles used during the Funds’ research phase into the potential climate impact of each investment, 3. Due diligence questionnaires including: ESG assessment scorecards, legal and ESG questionnaires, 4. Financial and impact KPIs reported by portfolio each quarter. The main source of data is information provided by the companies assessed for investment. During the due diligence phase, the Funds access to the data is limited to what the portfolio company reports. Certain measures are taken to ensure data quality including (but not limited to): - ensuring validity by the use of well-designed data collection surveys that are tested and validated, - ensuring reliability by using standardized data collection instruments and by following data collection procedures consistently, - enhancing the readability of questionnaires including the definition of technical terms, - ensuring that questionnaires are completed, or the interviews are given by qualified respondents of the investee company; and including the option to provide documentary evidence to support responses where appropriate, - ensuring that data security measures are in place to protect against unauthorized access, tampering, or loss of data. This can include using secure data storage and backup systems, and restricting access to sensitive data. The data is processed by the Funds investment team and other members of the team supporting the investment decision and portfolio management. In certain cases, the Funds may ask external parties/consultants for additional review of the data. If needed, the data may be supplemented by estimates based on plausible fact-based assumptions. The need for estimates highly depends on the quality and availability of data provided by the individual portfolio company. Therefore, the proportion of estimated data cannot be provided in advance. Nonetheless, the aim is to reduce the use of estimates to a minimum. Limitations to methodologies and data Limitations to methodologies and data sources are expected to mainly be due to a lack of precise data from companies/incomplete data. Incomplete data refers to missing data, which can occur due to non-response, incomplete surveys or questionnaires, unavailability of data, or other reasons. This can limit the validity of the data. The Funds do not expect such limitations to greatly impact the promotion of environmental characteristics as the investment strategy is largely based on the intended business model of the company rather than the availability of data sources. Further, the Funds will actively work with an investee company before any investment to gather sufficient responses and data, as well as enhance data quality if deemed lacking.  Post-investment, the Funds will continuously work with investee companies to enhance and improve data sources when deemed necessary and will seek to implement appropriate monitoring systems. Due diligence All investment decisions are based on commercial, financial, legal, and ESG due diligence, as well as estimated return and key risk components. During the due diligence process, all potential portfolio companies are asked to complete an ESG questionnaire to give insights into the materiality of ESG risks. Potential portfolio companies are also asked to complete a separate ESG scorecard. The scorecard is used in deciding whether there is enough alignment for the company to join the portfolio. The scorecard includes a self-assessment part that is sent to the company as part of the due diligence pack as well as an internal assessment that is filled in by the investment lead prior to the investment committee’s decision. The investment lead will review the scorecard six months after the investment and then annually. Engagement policies Following an investment decision, the Funds will actively engage with portfolio companies to agree on impact KPIs to be reported quarterly. Further, the Funds may engage with the portfolio companies through board engagement, other dialogue and participation in shareholder meetings. The Funds may occasionally engage in the processes and policy creations, but it is generally required of the portfolio companies to take active ownership of their ESG and corporate responsibility matters and to implement them in a way that best serves the value-creation of the company. Attainment of the sustainable investment objective No reference benchmark has been designated to promote the environmental characteristics. Updated: Q4 2025, following the Funds’ reclassification from article 9 to article 8 financial products. CONCERNING: Pale blue dot Satellite I (D) AB and Pale blue dot Satellite I (E) AB. Jointly The “Fund” Summary The Fund is considered to be ’Article 8’ fund type products under the Sustainable Finance Disclosures Regulation (“SFDR”).

Investment strategy The Fund’s strategy is to invest in companies with a positive climate impact that directly or indirectly reduce, reverse, or prepare for the effects of climate change, or enable others to do so. Good governance of the investee companies is first assessed during the investment process. Thereafter, it is through traditional governance structures such as board and/or shareholder meetings, as well as more informal update meetings with the portfolio companies. Certain aspects of good governance practices (such as management team diversity) are reported to the fund quarterly. Further, the Funds may annually request additional information on the good governance practices of the portfolio companies. Proportion of investments The Fund will allocate its capital in companies that promote any of the environmental characteristics (reduce, reverse and/or prepare). The Fund does not commit to make any investments that qualify as environmentally sustainable (*i.e.,* taxonomy-aligned) under Regulation (EU) 2020/852. Monitoring of environmental characteristics All portfolio companies are required to set up quantitative climate KPIs (one or more) that directly relate to the core problem that they are solving, and these are reported to the Fund and further to the LPs on a quarterly basis. Additionally, six months after the initial investment by the first Pale blue dot-branded fund, and annually thereafter, ESG scorecards are completed for all companies in the portfolio, which are used to keep track of the initial understanding of the portfolio company. Methodologies Each potential portfolio company is assessed for its climate impact potential before receiving an investment from a Fund. This is done internally by the Fund. A climate thesis which has been developed by the first Pale blue dot-branded fund which invested in the portfolio company has mapped the company against the Funds’ impact categories (*i.e.,* reduce, reverse and prepare). This thesis is revisited before the Fund’s investment. Data sources and processing A main source of data is information provided by companies through pitch decks, DD questionnaires and reports. All data is processed internally by the Fund and might be reviewed by external parties, if needed. The Fund works on improving data quality through ongoing process reviews and by ensuring validity, reliability and readability of the data collection instruments in use. If needed, the data may be supplemented by estimates based on plausible fact-based assumptions. Limitations to methodologies and data Limitations to methodologies and data sources are expected to mainly be due to a lack of precise data from portfolio companies/incomplete data. Incomplete data refers to missing data, which can occur due to non-response, incomplete surveys or questionnaires, or other reasons. The Fund will engage with potential investee companies to ensure that sufficient data is gathered at the investment stage. The Fund then engages with existing portfolio companies to enhance and improve data sources where deemed necessary and will seek to implement appropriate monitoring systems. Due diligence All investment decisions are based on previous engagement with the portfolio company (as the Fund’s strategy is to invest in companies where a Pale blue dot-branded fund has already invested), as well as estimated return and key risk components, in addition to additional due diligence to the extent deemed appropriate. Such due diligence can for example consist of the review of Pale blue dot’s previous climate thesis for the company and internal ESG scorecards. Engagement policies Following an investment decision, the Fund will actively engage with portfolio companies to agree on impact KPIs (one or more) to be reported quarterly. Further, the Fund may engage with the portfolio companies through board engagement, participation in shareholder meetings and other dialogue. The Fund may occasionally engage in the processes and policy creations, but it is generally required of the portfolio companies to take active ownership of their ESG, and corporate responsibility matters and to implement them in a way that best serves the value-creation of the company.

But hardware needs debt.  Equity alone won't cut it. Tangible build the infrastructure for hardtech debt. They're the fastest route to game-changing financial products—from prep through lender matching to facility management. Financial Engineering for Futuristic Engineering Debt markets for hardware are fragmented and manual. Every deal is bespoke, and every company starts from scratch. That inefficiency is expensive. We don’t have time for that. To rebuild manufacturing, infrastructure, and energy security, trillions need to be deployed fast. Equity alone can’t fund it. Debt is the leverage that gives founders scale. But if hardware companies waste months in opaque markets, they are bottlenecked. Tangible standardise the chaos: They help companies get ready, connect them with the right lenders and put their facility management on autopilot. The result? Capital flows faster. Less dilution. More companies scale the tech we need.
