Responsible investing = Value creation
Frøya Ventures is an investment company that aims to realise the untapped value potential from underinvested ideas and markets. Frøya Ventures invest to solve global challenges, leverage technology to drive impact and accelerate gender equality. Frøya Ventures invest in healthcare innovations, innovative technologies and resource efficiency.
We welcome new sustainability-oriented legal frameworks, such as the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) and the Taxonomy Regulation, and we link the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development to our financial due diligence processes and investment decisions. The new regulations make finance an even more powerful tool in creation of overall value.
We have tailored our investment due diligence process to meet high ESG standards. Through impactful positions such as board directorships, we aim to purposefully use our influence to implement ESG polices and standard operating procedures in our portfolio companies.
Strong focus on diversity and gender equality
Our ESG approach guides us in regards to environmental, social and government factors both within our investment firm and within the companies we invest into.
We have a strong focus on diversity and gender equality, as we have identified lack of those to be a major challenge, both in the investment industry and start-up community. We work for an inclusive and diverse environment, within our firm and portfolio companies. We promote this view internally and externally, as we work for diversity and equal opportunity in recruitment processes.
