Mission

The FAST Initiative aims to provide future generations with a Sustainable Planet

Food and textile production has a negative footprint that is neither sustainable nor can it satisfy the future needs of a growing wealthier world population

We focus on 4 segments: agriculture, food, waste and textiles
Leveraging technologies that reduce mankind’ environmental footprint

While generating superior financial returns 
We are conscious capitalists, purpose and profit driven

We look at funds and direct investments

Focus
