Perspectives

Nature
Markets

Digital Environmental Assets will drive sustainable infrastructure financing. Current VCMs and Natural Capital Markets have limitations such as inconsistency in monitoring, lack of transparency, and limited market liquidity.

Open Circularity

Reliable data lays the foundation for sustainable change - open, permissionless and interoperable networks for businesses and industry-focused data exchange platforms will power the coming wave of the green industrial transition.

Digital
CLimate Tech

Three-quarters of the world’s $100tn in gross domestic product is made up of traditional legacy industries — such as manufacturing, transportation and logistics, that have yet to be deeply transformed by technology. Software will be the critical enabler to a digital net-zero future.

The Vanagon Advantage

By combining traditional Venture Capital investments with deep network and expertise in the digital asset space, we are able to win meaningful allocations, attract top-tier co-investors and catalyze climate finance
at profit and scale.

A community-driven VC Fund

Being deeply embedded in the European Blockchain landscape since 2016 give us unparalleled access and network to the teams who build meaningful real-life impact companies. Shortsighted trends interest us as little as overall crypto market movements - our sensors are configured for product innovation and business necessity. Out of this ecosystem we target the thriving 'ReFi' subset which enables us to spot outliers first and enable them to achieve substantial market-traction and secure meaningful follow-on funding from both established Climate or Tech investors in Europe but also globally.

We run an own-operated education program

In today's dynamic digital landscape, the transition to greener, more sustainable practices is not just a matter of environmental urgency—it's also a strategic imperative for businesses aiming to remain viable and competitive. Therefore we established a waiting program that meanwhile has +600 people on the waitinglist. Cohort I sarted in September 2023 with 160 participants. Applicants are innovators, corporates, startups, technologists and sustainability experts from e.g. Amazon, Deloitte, Celo, Raiffeisen, Deutsche Bank

"Literally the most supportive early investor I can imagine!" - Adrian Wons, CEO - Senken

While >80% of european VCs haven't founded a company themselves, we now the struggles from finding product market fit until exit ourselves.

We pitch our portfolio companies in our network as if they where our own
Our skillset allows us to work closely with founders in strategy, growth, fundraising, M&A
