Elemento is a permanent capital firm that invests in and develops high-potential businesses across industrial, technology, sport and design sectors.
A matter of values
Born from a series of early convictions about people, products, and ideas that seemed compelling long before anyone called them portfolio opportunities, the firm has always operated on a simple underlying logic: back projects that have something to prove, and stay long enough to see what they truly become.
European sensibility, American philosophy
The founder has spent the better part of his professional life between the United States (where he is still very active today as an investor and advisor to both tech companies and an institution like Boston University) and Europe, building a perspective shaped by American pragmatism and European sensibility in equal measure.
That formation became the foundation upon which Elemento was built, reflecting a consistent preference for results over appearances and for authority earned through facts rather than claimed through positioning.
For the last 16 years, the firm has operated on the same principle: a compact core team that activates, on a project basis, a global network of specialists and advisors across engineering, finance, strategy, and design, ensuring flexibility and access to the best expertise available without the inefficiencies that come with scale.
Elemento supports and strengthens companies that combine innovation, responsibility, and lasting ambition. The firm partners closely with founders and management teams, offering strategic guidance, operational expertise, and patient capital: an active presence in the room where decisions are made as a partner who shares the risk and the vision.

The power of teamwork
OUR MISSION
Elemento seeks businesses in the process of demonstrating their potential through a model that works, a market that responds, and a team that knows how to execute, partnering with those that are ready to take the next step.
Technology is our real lever, guiding us to invest in forward-looking businesses operating across technology, advanced manufacturing, sports, wellness, digital services, and sustainability.
Within this approach, permanent capital becomes the ideal instrument, giving companies the time and stability to grow on their own terms, free from the pressure of short-term cycles and built for those who are not bound by a timeline.
Looking beyond sector labels
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Patience
Elemento resists the pressure of short-term cycles in favour of what endures. We give companies the time and stability they need to grow on their own terms and reach their full potential.
Curiosity
Staying open to ideas across sectors, geographies, and disciplines is our method. Elemento approaches every opportunity willing to learn before claiming to know, and finds its best insights precisely where others would never look.
Integrity
The firm acts with clarity, accountability, and consistency. Founders, partners, and management teams know exactly where Elemento stands, and that position does not change depending on the circumstances.
Collaboration
The best outcomes are always the product of genuine partnership. Elemento builds relationships grounded in trust, where shared ambition and mutual accountability create conditions for success.
