<aside> 🌍 We’re building the category-defining climate investment platform. To do so, we provide private investors and family offices with assets crafted or curated for both impact and returns. We want to be seen as an uncompromising and trustworthy leader in climate finance, massively steering capital towards emissions reduction.

Climate change is an economic problem first, and a financial problem second.
It’s an economic problem in the sense that runaway greenhouse gas emissions are a negative externality: they generate a cost to society that isn’t priced at its source. To reduce emissions at scale, these costs need to be internalized by pricing emissions.
It’s a financial problem in the sense that while we have the technologies and the know-how to mitigate global warming and suppress emissions, we’re collectively failing at allocating enough financial ressources to these solutions.
Homaio was born from these two observations.
The company is young - it was created in June 2023. There are 6 people in the team and 2 open positions. It is backed by European VCs and business angels. We have clients in multiple countries, from Brazil to Singapore, and have successfully unlocked the European Carbon Allowance market. While it is still early stage, there is an ongoing business and structured team to welcome you.
Homaio exists because no other product or platform offers a simple and trustworthy access to climate finance products that deliver both returns and impact to climate conscious investors. We want to be the most recognized and most relevant climate finance platform of our generation.
Carbon pricing is the fairest and most efficient mechanism to drive systemic change in production, consumption, and investment patterns. Emissions trading schemes, which are market-based approaches to carbon pricing, are being implemented throughout the world. Their trading unit - carbon allowances - are evolving into a new global asset class which has the potential to deliver significant emissions reduction.
Yet they remain walled off to individual investors.
By unlocking carbon allowances, we’re empowering individual investors to leverage their collective financial power to accelerate the transformative potential of emissions trading schemes. As carbon prices increase, polluters have a greater incentive to invest in decarbonation solutions, funneling massive investments in clean industries. We’re also diversifying market participants while adding liquidity, thus nurturing a well-functioning market to finance the future.
