Every year, one third of all food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted globally. That's the equivalent of feeding two billion people, more than twice the number of undernourished people across the globe. 

Our investee company Matsmart - Motatos is the leading D2C e-commerce retailer of overstock dry foods and consumer products. The company is driving a clear and positive environmental impact by reducing the amount of food that would otherwise be disposed or go to landfill.

Initially founded to support with food waste on a local level, the team has - to date - recirculated more than 60,000 tonnes of food and consumer products.

According to the United Nations, 8kg of e-waste has been created per person worldwide in 2023 - a total weight heavier than the Great Wall of China. 

When it comes to tackling e-waste, a growing number of companies are seeking to disrupt the dated, linear ‘take-make-dispose’ methods of production and consumption to curb escalating volumes and unlock the commercial opportunities offered by circular business models. 

Our investee companies P2i and Grover are leading the way when it comes to tackling e-waste,  sharing the commonality that e-waste should be considered a last resort, not a first choice. Tackling some of the most common factors behind the origination of e-waste, including extending product lifecycles, the businesses are turning a challenging situation into a future-proof solution for the industry of tomorrow.

Every year, more than 380 billion m3 of municipal wastewater is produced globally, with predictions from the European Investment Bank suggesting that volumes will increase by upwards of 24% before 2030. 

One company leading the charge when it comes to tackling the issue is Circularity investee CERAFILTEC. The company designs and manufactures ceramic ultrafiltration membrane solutions used for the treatment of drinking water, as well as wastewater for re-use, desalination and industrial applications.

Ultrafiltration membranes are a key enabler for both increased water quality and re-use through the removal of microplastics and industrial pollutants like PFAS to expand clean water access, in addition to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
