About Xylem Capital
Xylem was born out of a belief that Asia’s explosive demand for food and agricultural-based commodities is pushing the global food supply chain to a point where it is outstripping the environment’s ability to meet this demand.
Xylem brings an innovative approach to direct investment that prioritizes long-term environmental change. Xylem looks for opportunities where it can deploy capital in companies and projects in order to amplify their environmental impact, while meeting its minimum internal ROI requirements.
Xylem’s unique investment model connects entrepreneurs with global leaders in sustainable agriculture and food production, international development and finance, so as to facilitate transfer of knowledge, best practices and stimulate cutting edge innovation at the local level.
Xylem identifies entrepreneurs who are leading Asia’s sustainable agriculture and food transformation and arms them with the expertise and financial tools they need to scale towards maximum social, environmental and financial sustainability
Investing Internationally to Meet Asia’s Agriculture Needs at the Point of Origin.
As Asia’s demand for food grows, so does its impact on the the global environment. Xylem’s combined focus on market demand and investment is geared towards helping international suppliers profit from Asia’s growing demand.
Despite amount of money being invested in Asia and globally, there is a funding gap in this sector with almost no money invested in strengthening the market or companies looking to create sustainable, regenerative solutions to Asia’s demand for better food. Xylem believes that by meeting this need we can create a truly impact oriented fund.
