Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Edaphon?
Managing partner Vincent Vliebergh leads the investment committee alongside partner Joost Van Laer. Vliebergh previously founded and ran Korys, the Colruyt family investment holding, for 19 years. Van Laer joined from Korys' energy transition investment team. The senior associate bench includes PhD-level scientists who participate in technical due diligence.
How is Edaphon structured as a fund?
Edaphon is structured as an evergreen fund, meaning it does not have a fixed termination date. This structure was chosen deliberately to provide patient capital for companies working on biological and ecological timelines that do not fit the typical 5-to-10-year private equity holding period. The firm has not disclosed target hold periods or a maximum fund size.
