For Companies Looking for Finance

Power Fund II is aiming at investing in 12–15 new companies in Northern and Central Europe during 2008–2012. Power Fund I is fully invested and makes only follow-on investments in its current target companies.

The investments focus on renewable and distributed power generation and energy-saving technologies, especially in electrical and power electronic applications. Of particular interest are innovations in which different forms of energy is converted into electricity – such as wind and solar power, wave power, and biomass – and in energy-saving applications such as drive trains to industry, heavy mobile work machines and solid state lightning.

The initial target investment in an investee company is decided upon case by case but is normally between 0.5 and 5 MEUR. The fund’s ownership of shares of any investee company will not normally represent a majority of the total equity.

VNT funds do not invest in listed companies, real estate holding companies, or companies whose principal business consists of banking, finance, or management of private property.

In addition to financing, VNT provides a wide range of essential services and know-how to its target companies. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the VNT team.
