About us
Ikorni Invest is a Finnish family office founded in 2012. We began by investing in startups across various industries, and over time found our true focus in impact-driven ventures. Today, we primarily invest in companies creating lasting impact within sustainable development and life sciences, and take pride in being founder-friendly investors.
Our mission is to back entrepreneurs who combine solid technology with clear purpose — people working on solutions that make both economic and environmental sense. We like practical innovation, measurable environmental and social impact, and long-term thinking over short-term trends.
Since 2012, we have made over 50 direct investments in unlisted companies and taken stakes in several venture capital and private equity funds.
