Our strategy
Practically speaking, Aqua-Spark’s investment strategy is designed with the idea that…
We make initial investments of €250,000 to €5,000,000 in small-to-medium sized sustainable aquaculture businesses around the world.
We do not seek controlling stakes in our investees. We prefer to be a minority investor in the businesses we support, holding between 20 to 49 percent. We’ve chosen this tactic for two reasons: first, we feel the extra eyes and ears of other committed, engaged investors are a great asset to the investment as a whole, and, second, we want our entrepreneurs to have the flexibility to manage and grow their business on their own terms while also ensuring that we have enough influence should it be required.
To have the best chance of selecting winning opportunities we will invest 90% of capital in companies that:
have proof of concept and are ready to scale;
are existing businesses that want to expand;
10% of capital will be invested in riskier, earlier stage investments. For example, in:
disruptive new technologies;
disruptive new uses for existing products;
the World Fish Incubator program;
