Vision
Reverse the decline in biodiversity and curb the acceleration of global warming and its consequences, promote the resilience of territories, and strengthen our humanities: communities, culture, and knowledge.
Mission
Contribute to accelerating ecological, agricultural, and energy transitions toward a global systemic ecology that strengthens our ecosystems by leveraging entrepreneurship, philanthropy, and knowledge.
Strategic intent
In service of our purpose, vision, and mission:
Entrepreneurship: Investing in projects with high societal added value, sharing knowledge, combining expertise, and multiplying synergies to serve our mission, particularly through nature- and technology-based solutions, by supporting teams that strive for excellence in governance, managerial ethics, and operational practices.
Active philanthropy: Because some projects require time, and simple economic performance indicators are not enough to reflect their societal contribution and significance, we believe that active philanthropy in projects of excellence is another way to have a lasting impact on our societies.
Knowledge transfer: What could be more sustainable and impactful than investing in the future and mobilizing our collective intelligence and that of future generations?
