Thesis

The circular economy—where products are designed, manufactured, sold, refurbished, and recycled in closed loops—represents the future of sustainable economic value creation. We invest across R&D to commercial scale in foundational materials industries, providing not just capital but integrated support through our innovation center research and operating group execution.

Likely not a fit for
