What is Aconterra Capital Partners?

Aconterra Capital Partners is an independent Alternative Investment Fund Manager (AIFM) registered with the Belgian Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA).

Founded in 2019 and located in Antwerp, Belgium, the fund has an open-ended evergreen structure, with a focus on long-term value and impact in the smart building technology sector. With 30M assets under management, Aconterra targets early-stage technology companies in Western and Northern Europe and the United States that enhance building intelligence, energy efficiency, safety, and comfort. They invest in technology platforms, processes, and applications contributing to smart homes and buildings, connecting people through innovations in the internet of things (IoT), big data, and artificial intelligence (AI).

Moreover, they also have a keen interest in sensor technology sectors. Aconterra Fund finances startups and scaleups, offering ticket sizes ranging from 500K to 3M euros and is open to entering into venture capital syndicates.

Although they focus mainly on the European market, with a sweet spot in Benelux, Nordics, and DACH regions, investments can also be directed towards companies outside Europe that maintain a European focus. While hardware can be part of the solution, their priority lies in software development including front-end, middleware, and edge computing.

Aconterra strongly believes in fostering an ecosystem that adds value beyond mere financial investments. They encourage a network of cross-industry players, sharing know-how within Aconterra, and connecting their portfolio companies with clients, suppliers, investors, and the possibility of co-working with other portfolio companies.

They support sectors that contribute to energy efficiency, sustainability, health and comfort of living, safety, and security. Their ecosystem is positioned to support smart building technology firms, providing the expertise, networks, and capital necessary to realize their objectives.
