COP 15 in Copenhagen

We have a vision to do something truly important (and sustainably profitable) for the planet. We are still raising our own launch capital for both our own company, and our first fund, so GSC is currently an investment opportunity..

Feel free to take a look at the site and if you have interest, about investing, raising investment, working with us, or learning more about the important issues we are bringing to the worlds attention, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

At Global Sustainability Challenge we aim to accelerate the transition towards a sustainable world through a better method of discovering and supporting the efforts of the most promising clean-tech entrepreneurs, innovators and individuals - directly, indirectly, and on a large scale.

At it's core and though multiple innovations GSC is designed to be a more efficient system for finding, investing in, and supporting a portfolio of opportunities while still generating a healthy return for in
vestors.

With a better, fairer and more objective system of deciding with whom to engage, and looking thoroughly at a volume of opportunities to find them, we plan to get involved from the very earliest level making many seed investments.

For those that keep proving their worth and potential, we aim to invest through multiple stages right up to the point value can be optimised through to long term sustainable
and commercial success.

Those needing £100k to assess an idea to those requiring upwards of £40m to take the venture to scale will be able to raise funding on fair terms.

Crucially, the way we are structuring means this will be without the typical run around associated with conventional venture or seed routes.

The overarching goal of GSC is to create jobs and economic vibrancy in sectors that are highly important to society (and the planet) but for reasons of market failure are significantly under-served. We truly believe the only way we can do this is to make money for investors through multiple innovations, dedication, clever risk management and hard work.

The first fund we are raising is a permanent capital fund that will enable up to £200m to be invested in the United Kingdom each year. Structured to scale around the globe, we aim to raise funds for multiple locations around the world. While GSC will raise the funds and provide leadership, governance, technology and back office support, the funds themselves will be operated and managed locally. That said, regional operations will be connected to provide markets and opportunities for technology and business model transfer. 

The difference between what we aim to do and current market practices comes down to details. Many of these details are explained on the website, however if you want to know more, please get in touch. We would be glad to help you understand more about our plans to speed up the transition to a sustainable world.
