Generation-Re

Gen Re operates as an investment syndicate that channels capital into the regenerative agriculture and food sector. The firm connects founders with a global network of over 170 investors, which includes farmers, entrepreneurs, and other professionals who share a commitment to regenerative principles.

Its business model is centered on creating Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) to pool funds from its community for investments in startups. Gen Re does not lead investment rounds but acts as a follow-on investor, participating in pre-seed, seed, and Series A funding stages. Typical investment tickets range from $60,000 to $120,000.

The firm evaluates potential investments by assessing pitch decks, engaging with founders, and collaborating with lead investors. It targets a diverse portfolio of businesses across the entire value chain, from farms and technology providers to consumer brands, provided they are purposeful, profitable, and support the regenerative movement.
