💡 Taking ESG Beyond Due Diligence: Post-Investment Support for VC Portfolio Companies While in buyout funds, the practice of ESG value-add has become standard over the last few years, VC has been lagging behind — a missed financial opportunity. As with ESG integration in due diligence, funds in our community are experimenting with where, when, and for whom value-add activities make sense in VC. These examples from thirteen funds, across geographies, fund sizes, and sector focus, show the large variety of ways VCs are helping with: 1. Specific and material ESG lapses identified in due diligence 2. Compliance with existing and future regulation and reporting requirements 3. Designing effective action plans and progress management structures to lock ESG into companies' growth 🙏 Many thanks to our contributors for sharing their insights and best practices: 2150: Peter Hirsch Antler: Rosalind Bazany blisce/: Clara Cohade Cusp Capital: Dr. Carolin Althoff daphni: Damien Didier HTGF | High-Tech Gründerfonds: Dr. Adrian Fuchs & Claudia Raber Kindred: The Kindred team Lightrock: Mehdi L.
