I.Company description

Finergreen is a financial advisory boutique specialized in renewable energies and the energy transition. Founded in 2013, the company now operates around the world through 11 offices with around 90 collaborators in total, of which 30 are based in Paris.

We advise our clients (mostly independent industrials, financial institutions or utilities) on strategic projects in either equity (M&A, venture or growth capital) or debt (project finance, private placements, LBOs) transactions.

We have advised over 150 financial transactions to date which led to the development of more than 15 GW of renewable capacity and which have helped startups become cornerstone players of the energy transition around the world.

We strongly believe that financial expertise is required as a fundamental driver of success for entrepreneurs in the energy transition industry given the large amounts of capital that need to be deployed on the long term to drive significant change on our planet.

With a strong track record of working with family businesses and entrepreneurs but also with large and international financial institutions, Finergreen is a recognized advisor in the industry while remaining true to the entrepreneurial spirit that was at its inception.
