One Investment at a Time

About Us


TerraFive was founded with a purpose to build a digital, sustainable and enduring legacy for the next generation.

We believe the accelerating climate and sustainability megatrend shaping our society and planet represents a huge tailwind and is where many large businesses are going to be built over the next decade.

At TerraFive we buy and build companies with material positive impact across our climate and sustainability themes through our combination of growth, transformation and acquisition experience. We are hands-on business builders focussed on scaling companies that are better for people and the planet while generating top-tier financial returns.

Our headquarters is in London and we focus on UK technology and tech-enabled companies across our five themes that have the potential for international expansion.

Our Founder Story

Our Approach

At TerraFive we are both investors and operators. We take a buy and build approach and every business we partner with involves a significant financial investment from us alongside the TerraFive team taking a hands-on role to accelerate growth, transformation and acquisitions. One of the main benefits of taking a highly concentrated approach is we can fully dedicate our time and experience to each business and not spread ourselves too thinly across a large portfolio.

Meet the Team

Our small and experienced team based in London combines diverse backgrounds in investing, executive, entrepreneurship and consulting roles.  Many of the team have built or run companies and we have all worked together in different businesses prior to coming together as the TerraFive team.  Our laser focus is finding situations where we can deploy our proven and battle-tested playbooks to drive growth, profit and impact.
