INVEN CAPITAL SICAV ASLieu
Description
The project would consist of setting-up a special purpose vehicle (SPV) managed by Inven Capital, SICAV a.s. Inven Capital is a venture capital fund operating as an independent entity but fully owned by CEZ, the Czech national energy utility.
Additionality and Impact
The operation concerns a co-investment facility between Inven Capital and the EIB that would deploy equity to innovative clean-tech SMEs and MidCaps in the EU. These companies will be developing solutions to reduce the carbon footprint and other negative externalities of a wide range of sectors from agriculture to transportation and energy generation. With extensive experience and a strong network in the clean-tech sector, Inven is an ideal partner for the EIB to swiftly deploy capital in that market crucial to the EU's energy transition. From Inven's perspective, the EIB's capital commitment significantly increases its resources to support the targeted innovative SMEs and adds further expertise.
Objectifs
The SPV will co-invest alongside Inven on a 50:50 basis into innovative and high-growth cleantech companies in the EU. This would be an indirect portfolio equity type operation. The fund is focused on ClimateTech, including for example transportation & logistics, energy & power, industrial & manufacturing, resources & environment, agriculture & food and engagement platforms focused on energy use and decarbonisation.
