Director of Capital & Investments

Climate-KIC

Dominic Hofstetter is the Director of Capital and Investments at EIT Climate-KIC, Europe’s largest climate innovation initiative. He is responsible for building the organization’s nascent investment function and has led the co-creation of Transformation Capital, a new investment logic at the intersection of systems thinking and finance practice designed to catalyse the transformation of place-based systems such as cities, landscapes, and transportation networks. Before joining EIT Climate-KIC in 2015, Dominic had worked as an entrepreneur at the renewable energy start-up Electrochaea, as a private equity investor at Hudson Clean Energy Partners, and as a finance professional in the institutional asset management division of Credit Suisse. He holds an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and an MSc from the Environmental Change Institute at the University of Oxford.

What he is most excited about in your current work is connecting with like-minded people and see "who's out there".

At the School of System Change, Dominic contributed to the Investors in Change Module 2 on funder strategies and approaches.
