PeakBridge VC

PeakBridge VC is a venture capital firm focused on Agri-FoodTech, investing in companies that address major challenges in the global food system. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Malta, PeakBridge aims to create long-term impact by investing in startups that drive sustainable solutions, improving both environmental and health outcomes across the food chain. The firm’s investment strategy is centered on five key areas: ingredient innovations, alternative protein technologies, food system digitalization, nutrition & health, and alternative farming systems. By investing in these sectors, PeakBridge helps startups scale solutions that tackle issues such as food waste, nutrition deficiencies, and the carbon footprint of food production. Its portfolio includes innovative companies like Standing Ovation (dairy substitutes through microbial fermentation), Vow (cultured meat), and Rival Foods (plant-based protein). PeakBridge operates through its FoodSparks® Seed Fund for early-stage European and Israeli startups, and Growth II Fund for Series A-B investments in Europe, the U.S., and Israel. The firm’s total assets under management exceed $250 million, with significant backing from Edmond de Rothschild Private Equity. As an Article 9 fund under the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), PeakBridge integrates strict ESG principles into its investments, ensuring all portfolio companies contribute to a healthier and more sustainable food system.
