"While many venture capital firms still treat sustainability as a checkbox, The Footprint Firm is taking a radically different approach. The Copenhagen-based firm has just closed its Footprint Fund I at €76 million, an Article 9 fund dedicated to accelerating the green transition in Northern Europe. Unlike traditional VCs, The Footprint Firm combines early-stage capital with hands-on advisory support, helping deep tech startups scale their impact from lab to market."
"With Footprint Fund I, we are doubling down on our mission to accelerate what is necessary. The future worth building will not arrive by chance, it must be ventured into. Europe has the talent, research depth, and industrial base needed to build category-defining climate solutions, and we want to contribute to the success of these teams with funding, ecosystem support and our expertise and network,"
The Footprint Firm, based in Copenhagen, closed Footprint Fund I at €76 million as an Article 9 fund focused on accelerating the green transition in Northern Europe. The firm targets re-seed and seed-stage companies with investments ranging from €0.5 million to €2 million across biotech, energy, AI-powered climate tech, circular manufacturing, CO₂ reduction, and food systems. The firm pairs early-stage capital with continuous, hands-on advisory delivered by 45 in-house specialists who support scientific validation, regulatory navigation, commercialization, and industrial scaling. The Footprint Firm was founded in 2019 by Jakob Mathias Wichmann, Anna Søndergaard, and Christian Sparrevohn to build category-defining climate solutions in Europe.
