What Green One Capital does

Green One Capital, SCR. S.A. is a Portuguese private equity and venture capital fund manager headquartered in Lisbon (Avenida da Liberdade), founded in 2016 as Optime Investments and rebranded in 2021. The firm operates a diversified platform of nine-plus independently registered sector-dedicated funds spanning renewable energy (Tejo Solar Future III), real estate and hospitality (Premium Investments Portugal, Aspect, Hospitality Expansion, Golden Leisure), convertible and corporate bonds (Golden Prosperity), classic/super/hyper cars (Legacy Fund), art (VerdiArt), education (Sharing Education II), venture capital (Tejo Ventures, Golden Venture), and cross-sector opportunities (Portugal Gateway).

The firm monetizes through a standard PE/VC revenue stack: recurring management fees of 0.75%–2% per annum on committed or deployed capital, one-time set-up fees of 0%–5% deducted from subscribed capital, and performance fees structured as 10%–30% carried interest over hurdle rates of 2%–8%. Fund vintages extend to 2032–2033 with subscription periods running through 2026–2027. Distribution is conducted through direct enterprise sales to institutional investors, family offices, and qualified HNW investors, with minimum investments of €50,000–€100,000 per fund.

Green One Capital serves a horizontally segmented investor base — institutional investors, family offices, and HNW individuals seeking ESG-aligned alternative investment exposure — while simultaneously deploying capital into portfolio companies across climate/energy transition, hospitality, real estate, education, art, and digital transformation. The firm differentiates through EU regulatory alignment (SFDR, EU Taxonomy 2020/852, Delegated Regulation 2022/1288) and partnerships with tier-1 audit firms (Deloitte, BDO, Mazars) and depositary banks (Bison Bank, Millennium BCP, BNI). The 20+ member team includes former executives from Barclays, Haitong Global Asset Management, Orey Financial, Bison Bank, Accenture, and Herdade da Comporta, providing institutional pedigree across investment management, real estate, and strategic consulting.
