Case Study: Portobello Capital

Portobello Capital, a leading venture capital fund manager in the “Middle Market” in the Iberian Peninsula, faced a significant challenge.

Founded in 2010 and managed by a team of financial experts, Portobello Capital has demonstrated an ongoing commitment to social, environmental and governance responsibility. Their commitment to the companies in which they engage is to identify the opportunities and risks and provide them with all the help they may need to progressively improve in the management of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) aspects.

However, collecting and tracking ESG data from the many companies in which they invest presented considerable difficulties.

Before the implementation of APLANET’s software, ‘SUSTAINABILITY’, Portobello Capital managed this data in an Excel spreadsheet, a process that turned out to be both time and resource intensive. The lack of a centralized system for collecting and tracking ESG data made it difficult to identify opportunities and risks, as well as to provide the necessary help to the companies in which they invest to improve their ESG management.

Together with Marisa González in her role as Investor Relations, this case study explores how Portobello Capital implemented APLANET’s software to overcome these challenges and improve its management of ESG data.
