Investment thesis
Emmertech backs technology companies at the intersection of agriculture and innovation, targeting upstream 'on-the-farm' opportunities. Its strategy pursues two core agricultural outcomes: increased productivity and yield, and reduced cost of production, while linking economic value creation to environmental sustainability. The firm employs a high-conviction, concentrated portfolio approach with larger investments in fewer companies, and takes a hands-on, active-management role leveraging its expertise, networks, and sector knowledge. Backed by innovative Canadian farmers and agribusinesses, Emmertech operates under an international mandate with a particular focus on enhancing Canadian agricultural systems.
