Capsa Vida
Capsa Vida was founded in 1997 as the dedicated investment arm of Corporación Alimentaria Peñasanta S.A., the parent of Capsa Food. Its mandate centers on projects that increase economic activity in rural Asturias and the health sector. The firm targets real estate and infrastructure assets. Confirmed holdings include La Granja Lab in Siero and Antiguo Teatro de La Benéfica in Piloña. It also participates in industrial land development through its collaboration with SODECO. Geographic focus remains Asturias, Spain, with occasional outreach via AseBio membership into broader Spanish biotechnology networks. Team size and total deployment figures are not publicly stated. Adjacent vehicles include the Foodbank Foundation and nutrition professorships at Complutense and Murcia Universities. Capsa Food holds B Corp certification. Capsa Vida functions as an internal corporate allocator rather than an independent family office or external fund manager. Its governance ties directly to the operating leadership of Capsa Food, with Rubén Hidalgo serving concurrently as Director of Innovation at the parent.
