European Circular Bioeconomy Fund (ECBF) The European Commission and European Investment Bank are setting up a fund focussing on growth financing for innovative companies belonging to the Circular Bioeconomy.

In a transforming economy, the European Circular Bioeconomy Fund (ECBF) invests and partners with ambitious and visionary entrepreneurs to accelerate late stage companies. ECBF relies on expertise and powerful networks to catalyze sustainable innovations and fuel business growth. ECBF aims to fill a funding gap in the European (bio-)economy, bringing Europe’s excellent expertise in circular technologies to market. ECBF will be established in Luxembourg, advised by an experienced venture capital team within ECBF Management GmbH and managed by Hauck & Aufhäuser Funds Services S.A. (AIFM). Being a market standard growth stage venture capital fund, ECBF has the additional ability to focus on project financing as well as typical venture capital investment structures.
