Adam Kybird on his appointment: “Triodos Food Transition Europe Fund is a unique fund. From agriculture’s role in climate change to falling life expectancies through to the food security challenges of 2022, the weaknesses of our food system are clear and this fund directly addresses these. Using patient and impact motivated capital, it supports those businesses that are changing the system for the better from the inside. As such, I’m delighted to take over the fund management of this extraordinary fund. I look forward to growing the fund together with the whole team involved and to ensure the fund continues to play a transformational role in the food system.”
Adam holds a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from the university of Oxford and a Corporate Finance qualification from the London Business School.
