FAMAE Impact

FAMAE Impact targets pure-play environmental startups that physically decarbonize industrial sectors. The firm favors hardware-enabled and asset-heavy businesses capable of directly altering energy, water, waste, or transport systems. Its investment ticket size ranges from €1M to €4M, and it avoids software-only carbon accounting platforms in favor of operators like Osmosun for solar desalination and NOIL for electric scooter conversion.

FAMAE Impact does not invest in companies whose environmental benefits are purely digital or based solely on carbon credits and measurement. The portfolio shows a clear preference for businesses that deliver physical decarbonization, such as Energy Pool's smart-grid management or Cycloponics' conversion of underground spaces into organic farms, over software-centric climate tools.

Yes. FAMAE Impact invests across early stage, growth, and buyout opportunities, with a common ticket size between €1M and €4M. This stage-agnostic approach allows the firm to support companies scaling industrial solutions, from the initial development of Géochanvre's biodegradable fiber textiles to the growth and buyout of established players like Energy Pool in intelligent energy management.

FAMAE Impact invests in changes to physical infrastructure and industrial processes. For example, it backs NOIL's technology to industrialize electric conversion for Europe's existing petrol scooter fleets, rather than consumer rideshare apps. Another holding, Les joyeux recycleurs, deploys on-site waste sorting and collection services inside corporate offices, directly reducing landfill contributions through a hardware and logistics model.
