Portfolio highlights

  • STRGY AI — The strategy was never the problem. The evidence was correct, sitting in someone's hands, and it died anyway because nothing in the organization was built to carry that evidence from where it was seen to where it could be acted on, and keep it alive long enough to matter. Not a bad plan. Not bad people. A structural gap between signal andauthority that every existing tool — decks, dashboards, status meetings — is too static and too easy to ignore to actually close.STRGY exists because that gap is the default state of every organization above a certain size, and closing it has always required either a heroic individual repeating themselves for years or luck (the corporate pilot needed one person to remember "do not drop this" at the right moment, and no one did). That's not a strategy problem to solve with a better framework — it's an infrastructure problem. You need something that holds the signal, doesn't forget it, doesn't get bored repeating it, and resurfaces it automatically the moment the gap between evidence and action starts to widen. That's what a human can't do reliably at scale, and what software with real memory can.
  • Coolbrook — Our RotoDynamic electric technology can cut 30% of industrial emissions annually, delivering hope at industrial scale.
  • Solar Foods — Solar Foods is a food-tech startup that specializes in testing a technology that uses electricity to produce hydrogen which is combined with carbon dioxide, water, vitamins, and minerals to feed and grow microbial biomass that can be used as edible protein. The industrial biotech startup develops a protein called Solein, a nutritious, sustainablesubstitute for animal-derived proteins. Solein is created using elements from the air—CO2, water, nitrogen—and electricity. This single-cell protein is cultivated through gas fermentation, essentially deriving edible calories from hydrogen-oxidizing microbes.

We will respectfully, discreetly stand by the entrepreneurs believing in these ideas, from the beginnings and at least since that impact leaves its first dent.We care about each startup in our portfolio getting the full value a hundred years old education company like Zanichelli can offer, wherever our expertise can be a lodestar because of our history, our mission, our network, our resources; and we believe in getting out of the founders’ way otherwise, if we don’t add value.We care about financial returns and self-sustainability and about bringing collaboration opportunities, insights, innovative thinking and entrepreneurial energy back to our company digital products designers, editorial staff and IT, searching for mutual advantages. Only in the long term, as we and the founders build trust through intense collaboration and shared stakes, and after a startup fully spreads out its potential as a maturing company, we believe in searching together for possible paths to a deeper partnership. We co-invest globally, following trusted, local lead investors.
