Transforming the food system
In our top story today, we put the spotlight on a young venture capital firm from Switzerland – Zebra Impact.
Founded in 2022 by Fabio Sofia and Lionel Artusio-Payot, the VC believes today’s agrifood and aquaculture systems, which are responsible for 30% of greenhouse gas emissions globally, can create "significant" investment opportunities across the global food value chain.
We catch up with Sofia to understand more about the firm, its fundraising ambitions and the outlook for impact investing, as well as the three verticals the firm is focusing on – precision farming, alternative nutrition and food waste. He also discusses the difficulties that emerging managers may face during the fundraising phase.
