We Bring Innovation and Investors Together for a Sustainable Future
We are an Australian based Thematic Investor driven by strong global megatrends and achievement of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
We invest for the long term, across the technology and business lifecycle, as patient, strategic and active partners to our portfolio companies.
At AxleTree capital we support profitable businesses that are innovating in technologies, products, services and projects that deliver a material benefit to our communities and society without compromising returns for our investors.
OUR APPROACH
Through our lifecycle approach to investment and alignment with Global Megatrends, we offer institutional investors opportunities to:
Access to a broader range
of opportunities to invest at scale in the sustainability thematic
Value and diversification benefits available to patient investors in unlisted growth assets
Reduce costs
by avoiding unnecessary portfolio churn, matching fund structure to strategy
We bridge the gap between early innovation and commercialisation to growth and scale, with active and ongoing support of businesses and by connecting investors to the best innovations.
OUR FUNDS
In February 2025 we launched our $150m AxleTree Capital New Industries Fund (NIF). The New Industries Fund invests in growth stage companies in Australia and New Zealand that are making a significant contribution to sustainability across the themes of water, waste and energy in four priority sectors:
Agriculture
Advanced Manufacturing
Construction
Transport
The New Industries Fund invests in a structured portfolio across the full commercialisation life cycle; from start-up to mature businesses developing projects, technologies and services which positively contribute to a sustainable global society and environment, referencing in particular the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
The New Industries Fund enables investors to actively support the transition to new industries and new technologies which address climate change
and other critical sustainability challenges that confront humanity.
