Empowering innovators
Your dream, our project
Venet was founded by three former colleagues, each bringing complementary backgrounds and united by a shared vision: to become the trusted partner for companies and investors in the Climatech space. Their diverse experience, combined with a strong industrial, financial, and academic network, fuels their conviction that new technologies represent a unique and transformative investment opportunity. This shared belief is the foundation of Venet’s story—and the driving force behind our mission to accelerate the net-zero transition.
