Action for Climate and Sustainability
Planet and people
At Andera Partners, we are convinced that our companies provide an ideal platform to engage in social responsibility. In addition to maximising profit, which ensures their independence, companies must now also contribute to solutions that benefit the planet and its inhabitants

Partnerships with associations since 2018
Hand in hand
Andera Partners has established partnerships with associations whose actions reflect our values. We work at different levels, providing funding, expertise and in-kind support, on an ad hoc or long-term basis. Education, healthcare, the environment and combating discrimination are the main causes we are supporting.
Initiatives
Taking a stand
for the future
We are pleased to engage in tangible actions, by making commitments for to both reduce and offset our carbon emissions. We are convinced that the positive impact we seek for our ecosystem must now also be measured on the basis of non-financial criteria.

Our commitments
-
CO2-neutral® label
On 9 December 2019, Andera Partners reached an important milestone in combating climate change and obtained the CO2-neutral® label.
Our team is proud of this certification, and of our role as a responsible investor active in the fight against climate change. Our next focus is reducing the greenhouse gas emissions of the companies in our portfolio.
The company CO2logic and independent third party Vinçotte are collaborating on the CO2-neutral® label based on “PAS 2060”, the first internationally recognised standard for carbon neutrality. The CO2-neutral® certification guarantees that an organisation calculates its local and global impacts, reduces them and offsets its residual greenhouse gas emissions. Achieving carbon neutrality is an indisputable cross-industry guarantee of Andera Partners’ commitment to climate protection. -

We strive to give meaning to investment – by investing responsibly. Andera Partners is a signatory of the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) and the iC20 (2020 Carbon Initiative) by France Invest. We have documented this commitment in our Responsible Investment Charter signed by all employees.

Signatory of France Invest's IC20
In 2019, Andera Partners joined the collective initiative launched by France Invest and co-signed by other French private equity firms.

The signatories therefore undertake to:
– Recognise that climate change will have effects on the economy that represent risks and opportunities for companies
– Get involved to contribute, at their own level, to the COP21 objective of limiting global warming to two degrees Celcius
