Through the investing activities of our funds, we aim to address the most pressing health and environmental issues of our time.
Our team is both patient and urgent in our investment practice. We know that it takes time to build value in a young business, but we also understand both the competitive dynamics of the marketplace and the need to establish an early leadership position.
We measure our success not just by the traditional financial metrics of superior returns to our investors, but also by measuring our abilities to generate positive social impact and to foster sustainable environmental solutions.
