Podcast by Startup basecamp

PART 1: Meet the investor

Today we sat down with Dr Fabian Heilemann founder & CEO @ Aenu, a

VC impact fund focused on early-stage companies primarily located in

northern Europe and the UK. With his evergreen Fund, Aenu is breaking

free of the ten-year VC traditional fund model to build lasting

relationships with the founders it invests in by following startups

through to post-IPO.

Fabian’s background as an entrepreneur began early on when he first

partnered with his brother to start a food truck business. He has since

then started five companies including one that was sold to Google, and

used the proceeds to enter the investing space. But it was only later

that he and his brother began to think about impact and pivot toward the

climate space and together they started AENU, which is now a 100M

Evergreen fund.

During this episode, Fabian takes us on a deep dive to understand what

the overall climate tech sector looks like and how it differs across

continents. Is it collaborative or competitive? Which sectors are most

exciting or over-hyped? Come along as we get a bird’s eye view of the

global climate tech ecosystem with an investor that has a foot on both

continents.

Part 2: My Secret Sauce

In the second part of the show, Fabian gives a few super valuable tips

on how to frame your pitch to be the most impactful and what he does to

keep his energy up.
