Founded with impact focus

When GENUI was founded in 2014, it knew it wanted to have an impact; something that goes beyond a merely financial view of success. Over the course of establishing its second-generation fund (GENUI II), it set itself the goal of encouraging portfolio companies to contribute to accelerating the transition to a more sustainable economy and society.

Certified B Corp

Being a certified B Corp, GENUI’s strategic sustainability objective is to support positive and measurable social or environmental effects and pursue alignment of its investments with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
