Investing in mobility and energy Transition

Investment philosophy

Rumo Ventures® backs revenue generating businesses which prioritise the digitalisation, decarbonisation, connectivity, electrification, circularity, infrastructure and real assets of the mobility and energy industries. Rumo Ventures® believes these businesses will be better prepared to promote the ongoing transformational changes occurring in the mobility industry as a key enabler of the energy transition required for more efficient, effective and sustainable economies.

Early and Growth Stage

Early and growth stage companies will have better chances of fitting our investment philosophy. We focus on business principals, the financial and the strategic tools to create success, while being disconnected from industry jargon (e.g. Series A-Z, follow-on). In each investment there is a path (a “rumo”) that needs to be followed to get to the top of the mountain.

Strong Fundamentals & Believes

Strong fundamentals are not enough to build a successful business. Strong believes are not enough to build a successful business. But strong fundamentals and strong believes are. We look for passionate teams, with strong business fundamentals underpinning their business ideas (e.g. unit economics, attainable markets, profitability).

Building Bridges

We believe in the power of “building briges” that experienced, thoughtful, professional and involved shareholders can bring to the table. As such we go far beyond investing, and are committed to support our partners development pre and post investment.
