From the Famae Foundation tothe Famae Impact Fund

Since its creation, Famae has worked to preserve the living world and build a sustainable future.

The Famae Foundation laid the foundations of this mission by supporting initiatives with a strong positive impact.

This action was amplified with the creation of the Famae Impact fund, dedicated to financing innovative SMEs that preserve biodiversity and help reduce CO₂ emissions.

Tens of millions of euros have been invested since 2020 to support initiatives with strong potential for positive impact on the planet and society.

The same commitment, a decisive new step.
