Europe has the science, the founders and the capital to lead in biosolutions, but what it lacks is a strategy that connects them. The key could be the role of state investment funds in building the biosolutions & planetary health vertical, and what it will take for Denmark and Europe to move from strong research to global leadership. And importantly to look at where public capital should take risk, where it shouldn't, and what founders, funds and policymakers each need to deliver.
At EIFO, Valdemar is an Investment Manger investing in deeptech founders building the infrastructure Europe needs in biosolutions, energy, defence and quantum from Seed stage to Series B.
