Evergreen Fund
Ground Control is the founder of the Evergreen Fund, a £5 million impact venture that dedicates 5% of our annual net profits to supporting environmental initiatives and carbon sequestration.
Our vision is to show business as a force for good, by considering wider stakeholders and supporting sound, evergreen investments in ventures focussed on carbon reduction, sustainability, and environmental protection.
The Evergreen Fund will provide seed and growth capital to companies and social enterprises that are focused on delivering measurable, beneficial, and sustainable environmental impact.
We will invest ‘patient capital’ in projects that are commercially viable, so that the £5 million Fund is a perpetual investment facility, reinvesting future profits back into new sustainable ventures.
As part of our carbon sequestration commitment, the fund will dedicate £100,000 each year to native tree planting, serving as a catalyst and amplifier for projects with our customers, government organisations, charities, private landowners, our supply chain and other partners.
