CHALLENGES
Man-made climate change, rapid population growth in the emerging economies, massive changes in the environment, and the increasing global consumption of resources confront our society with new challenges.
OUR VALUES
The partnership approach of FSP Ventures is reflected in working with our portfolio companies and their managers. The entrepreneurial background and regional roots of FSP Ventures are the basis for a great understanding of the challenges of our portfolio companies.
OUR APPROACH
FSP Ventures was founded with the goal of turning technological innovations in the field of cleantech into successful businesses. Young innovative companies often have limited access to external equity. It is therefore the objective of FSP Ventures to support these businesses in gaining access to early-stage financing.
