Switzerland-based impact fund Una Terra plans to close its first fund by the end of this year at between €150m and €180m.
The fund will back circular economy startups at the scale-up phase, prioritising sustainable businesses over hockey-stick growth.
"We are not necessarily looking for unicorns," managing partner Luca Zerbini tells Impact Loop. "We actually want like 80-90% of the companies we invest in to be successful."
