We are an early stage impact fund that backs European companies already shaping a better, brighter future for people and planet.
what we do
how we do it
We are an early stage impact fund intent on accelerating positive, systemic change that benefits people and planet. We achieve this by backing visionary entrepreneurs with funds to fuel their mission and expertise on how to sustain and measure their success.
At WakeUp Capital, profit is part of the bigger picture; together with our founders and partner investors, we’re on a mission to build a cleaner, healthier and fairer future for everyone.
The companies we back already have a strong business model; we bring funding and deep expertise, helping founders translate their vision into tangible impacts they can measure and scale.
As a fund, we measure our success based on our social and environmental impact targets alongside our financial return, because we know they go hand in hand.
