About Evergreen Fund

At Ground Control, our owners and employees share a passion for nature and a commitment to sustainability. “Caring for Our Environment” is our defining philosophy and call to action. In late 2019, we launched the Evergreen Fund, dedicating 5% of Ground Control’s annual net profits to a £5 million Impact Venture Fund dedicated to environmental initiatives and carbon sequestration. Our vision is to show business as a force for good, by considering wider stakeholders and supporting sound, evergreen investments in ventures focussed on carbon reduction, sustainability and environmental protection. What binds our partners – founders, co-investors and investees – is the belief in the greater good and our collective ability to affect positive change together. At least 75% of investments will be focussed in the UK. The Evergreen Fund will provide seed and growth capital to companies and social enterprises that are focused on delivering measurable, beneficial and sustainable environmental impact. We will invest ‘patient capital’ in projects that are commercially viable, so that the £5 million Fund is a perpetual investment facility, reinvesting future profits back into new sustainable ventures. As part of our carbon sequestration commitment, the fund will dedicate £100,000 each year to native tree planting, serving as a catalyst and amplifier for projects with our customers, government organisations, charities, private land owners, our supply chain and other partners.
