Their portfolio includes companies such as Flora Fotonica, developing energy-efficient LED lighting for horticulture; Gordian Surgical with its innovative trocar closure device; and SoftWheel, bringing a novel suspension technology to wheels. Eco Wave Power, another notable investment, showcases their interest in advanced and competitive wave energy technology.
