Vad är egentligen impact-investeringar och vad ryms inom begreppet? På Norge-grundade investeringsbolaget Summa Equity arbetar man i alla fall enligt devisen att de mest prekära globala utmaningarna också kan vara grogrund för de mest intressanta affärsmöjligheterna. I bolagets tre fonder förvaltas totalt 50 miljarder kronor. Emelie Norling är Impact Director på Summa. Hon rör sig ledigt mellan de olika portföljbolagen och investeringsteamen för att säkerställa att såväl regelverk efterföljs, som att affärsmodell och underliggande drivkrafter linjerar med ägarbolagets syfte och värderingar. I det här avsnittet får du en glimt av komplexiteten bakom investeringsbesluten och arbetet vidare. // Inspelat på Summa Equitys kontor i Stockholm. // Programledare: Christian von Essen // Läs mer på hejaframtiden.se och prenumerera på nyhetsbrevet! // Den här intervjun resulterade för övrigt även i en artikel på Impact Loop.
How I Raised It - The podcast where we interview startup founders who raised capital.
Produced by Foundersuite (www.foundersuite.com), "How I Raised It" goes behind the scenes with startup founders and investors who have raised capital. This episode is with Rene Hansen, CEO of X Shore (https://xshore.com) a Swedish startup making 100% electric boats. In this episode, we discuss the chicken and egg problem when launching a new category like e-boats, the technology that makes it all possible, how the business raised capital from both banks and over 500 individual investors (many of them also boat buyers), and more. X Shore was originally founded by Swedish entrepreneur Konrad Bergström. X Shore most recently raised €8.5 million (about $9M US), bringing the company's funding to over €100 million. New investors in the round included Northvolt founder and CEO Peter Carlsson. Previous investors in X Shore include Delivery Hero founder Lukasz Gadowski's Team Europe holding company, Navin Thukkaram, founder and CEO of Innovation Bootcamp, and Marec Gasiun, former Head of Automotive Business Development at Google and Summa Equity.

Food is the medicine we put in our mouths everyday, yet on average, we all cook just 12 recipes per year, says Kees Kruythoff, former President for the Global Home Care division for Unilever, former CEO of LIVEKINDLY Collective, now Thematic Chair for Sustainable Food for Summa Equity. But if we want to build a sustainable food system, one that works for everyone, globally, we should start by changing at least one of our recipes to something plant based. The world's biggest hunger, says Kees, is currently for climate change and inequality, but there's one system which desperately needs our attention, and the moment you see it, you can't unsee it, and that's our food and agriculture system. In this episode of Summa & Friends, Kees, Reynir and Vesna discuss the very real need to transform the global food system, and why the ultimate force to address these challenges is through business.

Over 20% of Europe's CO2 emissions are a result of a linear economy, a number which can be reduced by 55% if we transition to a circular economy, says Bertrand Camus, former CEO of French multinational utility company SUEZ, now partner at Summa Equity. But that's not the only reason to make the change… Moving to a circular economy has a potential value creation opportunity of between EUR 1-2 trillion, not to mention all the jobs that go along with that. And given the size and magnitude of what needs to be achieved to get there, there is room for anyone who wants to play a role in this great journey we need to embark on. So, how can you get involved?

Reynir Indahl er grunnlegger og Managing Partner i Summa Equity. Summa ble startet etter at Reynir var overbevist om at finansnæringen produserte for mange negative eksterne virkninger, og at dagens private equity modell ikke lengre ville være suksessfull i fremtiden. Summa er et tematisk fond som investerer i selskaper som løser viktige globale utfordringer definert av FN's bærekraftsmål. Fondet har fått internasjonal anerkjennelse for sin innovative og bærekraftige tilnærming, og har i dag gjennom sine to fond circa 11 milliarder under forvaltning.I denne episoden diskutere vi Reynir sin innholdsrike karriere, hvordan han løser komplekse problemer og tar avgjørelser, hva Summa ser etter når de investerer i selskaper, hvordan han bygger kulturen i Summa, og hvorfor bredde og relasjoner er viktig for de som ønsker en meningsfull karriere.

Reynir Indahl isn’t just a man who talks the talk, he is a man who walks the walk. Having had a wobble as he turned 40, questioning what he was doing and what impact he was having on the world, Reynir, much to his family and friends confusion, turned his back on his successful career in finance in order to focus on being a solution to the world’s most significant challenges. Drawing on his Harvard education, Reynir founded Summa Equity in 2016, a purpose-driven, Nordic private equity firm managing €1.4 billion, to invest in companies looking to solve global challenges.“The world is developing rapidly. This poses new social and environmental challenges. By investing in companies that actively work to solve these challenges, creating a prosperous society for everyone, Summa is part of the solution.”This isn’t Reynir’s first time on Corporate Unplugged, he originally sat down with Vesna in 2018 to discuss Summa Equity and the work it was doing, and now feels like the right time to catch up with Reynir again, to see how far he’s come and hear what he’s learned over the last few years. When Reynir first ventured into impact investing, he was concerned with the effect that the financial system was having on the world around us, and how companies are increasingly affecting environmental issues. But then he realised that everyone is feeling its effects - social inequality is on the increase, for example, and this concerned him because he didn’t know if he was part of the solution or part of the problem. So he took steps to rectify this. Which has subsequently led him to where he is today. “These challenges create immense opportunities in the financial system. And investors can be a big force for driving that change. So I decided to leave private equity and started to work with with philanthropy and impact investing.”We hope you enjoy this podcast as much as we did.

In this episode, we're focusing on the role of investors and corporations in the zero waste movement - on BIG money. Reynir Indahl, founder and managing director at Summa Equity and Matthew Demorais, working with Global External Affairs at Sustainable Packaging of Unilever are guest in this episode. Investors and corporations contribute to the zero waste vision by trying to figure out how they can serve the market better, how they can earn more money, develop new products and services, push for new policies and much more. But what triggers change among the big players? How do they envision a zero waste society, and what are the concrete steps they’re currently taking? Reynir Indahl and Matthew Demorais share their insights on large-scale zero waste change processes and disruptions and the importance of co-creation and collaboration. Moreover, Reynir and Matthew share their own personal motivation for contributing to zero waste. Evelina and Malin discuss if system change doesn’t come down to a handful of people anyway… A special thank you to Raiffeisen Nachhaltigkeits-Initiative for supporting the making of this episode!
