Aconterra

Aconterra is an open-ended ‘evergreen fund’ that invests in early-stage technology companies driving building innovation and energy transition. They focus on financing and supporting startups and scaleups that enhance building intelligence, energy efficiency, safety, and comfort. The firm emphasizes long-term value and impact, differentiating themselves by not having high-pressure exit strategies. Their investment approach considers the integration of technologies that improve energy efficiency, sustainability, health, comfort, safety and security within various building asset classes, including apartments, airports, industrial, warehousing, and commercial properties, as well as building clusters. Aconterra's technology focus is primarily on software solutions, including front-end, middleware, and edge computing. While hardware can be a part of the solution, software is the distinguishing factor. They are interested in technologies such as Machine Learning/AI, sensors, actuators, and components related to IoT, IIoT, AIoT, BMS, NILM, BIM, AMR, CRE, IWMS, BMS, IAQ, IAM, and EHSQ. Beyond financial investments, Aconterra prioritizes building an ecosystem to add value to the fund. This ecosystem operates on principles such as fostering a network of cross-industry players, sharing know-how among Aconterra, investors, and portfolio companies, connecting portfolio companies with potential clients, suppliers, and investors, and offering support and encouragement for collaboration among portfolio companies.
