Environmental, Social & Governance Policy

At Revveon (“Revveon”), a product by Kavedon Kapital Limited, we strive to create value while remaining aware of our responsibility towards both society and the environment. We’re proud of the fact that we consider our ESG responsibilities as an integral part of our business model and we recognise the ever-increasing importance of environmental, social and governance aspects for our business and the world we in.

While this ESG policy sets out our commitment to responsible investing, we believe strongly in collaboration – and we will pursue a network-based approach to advance and improve our ESG position on an ongoing basis. We continually seek to work with partners to create sustainable value.

Against this background, this policy should be read and understood as an evolving, inclusive, and overarching document. In it, we will be setting forth our general ESG commitment, which may be shaped further through dynamic and collaborative processes.‍

As the policy evolves, we will endeavour to respect the principle of proportionality, i.e., taking due account of the size, nature and scale of our activities.

Scope‍

We commit to following this ESG policy within our own organisation, the business activities we carry out and partners we cooperate with. At Revveon, as part of our circular economic design we have already implemented concrete steps towards more sustainable and impactful business operations. We are committed to maintaining all our efforts to minimize Revveon’s and all its partners impact on the environment in other areas going forward.

We will make every effort to encourage our clients and partners to agree with our ESG policy and to commit to pursuing our ESG values. Also, we will strive to work with partners and market participants who implement such values themselves, or who can at least identify with them.

 

ESG Values

Revveon’s aim is to promote sustainable practices throughout our organisation. To this end, we’re proud to commit to the following values, which will serve as guidelines as we move towards wholly responsible investing and business practices.

Environmental

How can we become a positive presence in the natural world we live in?

  • Minimize environmental impact and encourage environmental consciousness
  • Promote the responsible use of resources (e.g., water, energy, natural resources; increase use of remote conferencing to minimize travel; implementation of energy efficient plans, train-first policy)
  • Limit consumption of environmentally scarce and non-renewable resources
  • Limit production of waste and improve recycling, for example, through active sorting and recycling of office waste

Social

How can we respect the rights, dignity, and well-being of everyone and contribute to a society in which there is equality for all?

  • Promote respect of internationally recognized human rights
  • Support elimination of child and forced labour
  • Promote diversity and equal opportunities
  • Zero tolerance against discrimination
  • Address customer interests (e.g., health, safety, privacy)
  • Respect employees’ and contractors’ rights to decent working conditions (e.g., minimum wages, working hours, health, and safety and right to collective bargaining)
  • Depending on the respective fund’s legal documents, no investments in companies whose business activities consist of certain business practices and sectors, such as illegal economic activities, tobacco, distilled alcohol, weapons and ammunition, casinos, or equivalent enterprises, as well as electronic data programs or solutions that (i) refer to the above activities, internet gambling and online casinos or pornography; or (ii) enable illegal entry into data networks or to download data
  • Encourage innovation, promote economic growth, and enhance global competitiveness of investee companies
  • Encourage clients to consider their material social issues and respect basic labour rights when conducting their business activities
  • Offer regular anti-bias trainings to increase partners’ awareness and sensitivity‍

Governance

How can we operate with integrity and transparency, and remain accountable for our business practices?

  • Maintain a strict anti-corruption, anti-money laundering and GDPR policy
  • Promote high standards of business ethics
  • Provide timely information to clients and partners on ESG matters and work to foster transparency regarding their activities
  • Create awareness of future regulations in the markets we operate in

Implementing our values

Our ESG values are an integral part of each phase of the investment and value creation process, which is why we incorporate them all aspects of our business activities.

We consider our ESG values as we conduct our due diligence processes. We collect relevant information from all clients and business partners to identify and evaluate potential ESG-related value creation opportunities and issues before making any business investment decision.

To further assess ESG-related value creation opportunities and issues, and to monitor adherence to our ESG policy, we look to revisit and monitor this on an annual basis. This enables us to identify any ESG-related value creation opportunities and issues early and encourage and support actions for improvement. We also apply best efforts when negotiating with clients and business partners, to reach a side letter agreement requiring the notification to us on an ad hoc basis if any ESG-related issues become apparent.‍

Specifically addressing social values, we have set up an Equal Opportunity and Inclusion policy, which covers relevant issues both internally and externally with its two pillars: career and investment. Each pillar has two goals, which can be summarized as equal opportunity on the one hand, and health and inclusion on the other. Our aim here is to ensure talented people of all backgrounds have equitable access to career and capital opportunities, and for Revveon to achieve its vision of becoming a role model for equal opportunity and inclusion in venture capital.

Risk Management

We consider ESG factors within our risk management processes prior to and post any business relationship. As required by the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (EU) 2019/2088, we have described and disclosed our processes relating to sustainability risks, as well as adverse impacts on sustainability factors, here.

Roles and Responsibilities

Our diverse team consists of experienced professionals who are committed to and collectively responsible for our adherence to this ESG policy in all relevant investment decisions and monitoring procedures. Where additional expertise is needed, the team will employ external resources.

Zero Tolerance Policy

Revveon (“Revveon”), a product by Kavedon Kapital Limited is committed to maintain an inclusive and safe workplace that promotes respect, integrity, equal opportunity, and openness. To this end, Revveon has adopted a zero-tolerance approach against any kind of discrimination and harassment. The purpose of this policy is to describe behaviour and activity falling under the zero-tolerance concept. It also includes how to report violations of this policy and remedial actions.

 

Scope

This policy applies to all individuals involved, engaged, or associated with Revveon, including Revveon employees, fund portfolio company founders and employees, partners and vendors and other stakeholders. We expect everyone to adhere to this policy in all settings associated with Revveon such as offices, video and telephone conferences, media and online communication, events, and social outings. The behaviours falling under the zero-tolerance concept include discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment, and other unwanted behaviour which are described in more detail below. The conducts and acts mentioned are not exhaustive. There may be other behaviour, which by either nature or context will fall within the scope of this policy.

 

Discrimination

Discrimination is when an individual is treated unfavourably or when an individual’s dignity is violated. There are several grounds of discrimination including sex, transgender identity or expression, ethnicity, religion or other belief, disability, age, or other basis protected by law (‘protected characteristics’).

Direct discrimination occurs when someone is treated less favourable because of having one or more of the protected characteristics, compared to someone who does not have the same protected characteristic. Indirect discrimination occurs when a conduct or act appears neutral but in fact disadvantages certain individuals and can’t be objectively justified. Discrimination also occurs if an individual with a disability is disadvantaged due to not getting the same access as someone without the same disability.

Discriminatory behaviour may include limiting opportunities to work for non-objective reasons, deliberate exclusion attendance in a way that may constitute indirect discrimination and instructing someone else to discriminate against another individual.

 

Harassment

Harassment is an unwanted conduct or act which an individual is subjected to, that relates to a protected characteristic, and violates the victim’s dignity or creates an intimidating, hostile, degrading or offensive environment.

Harassment may include statements or remarks that are derogatory or demeaning about an individual, degrading images or material portraying stereotypes of an individual or marginalized group, racist or ethnic slurs, obscene or abusive language or outing individuals against their will, e.g., sexual orientation and religion.

 

Sexual harassment

Sexual harassment is harassment of a sexual nature or related to gender. Sexual harassment can take many forms and does not need to be motivated by sexual desire. Some acts may be considered as sexual harassments by nature, while some acts may be considered as sexual harassment based on the context.

Sexual harassment may include misogynist comments or behaviour, deliberate or persistent misgendering, sexual jokes, advances, propositions and touching, gestures, written and verbal abuse of sexual nature or sexually degrading ways to describe an individual.

A conduct or act by an individual in significant power over the recipient, such as a senior staff member or a person who influences funding decisions towards a person seeking funding, are specifically included under this section.

 

Other unacceptable conducts and acts

The above-mentioned conducts and acts are not exhaustive. Other behaviour that the recipient may perceive as unwanted may also be considered as falling under the zero-tolerance concept such as: – non-sexual physical touch, restraint, assault or threats, retaliation, or the threat of retaliation against someone; – minimising, excusing, and defending unacceptable behaviour; and – criticizing the recipient of unwanted behaviour for having an inappropriate emotional state of mind in response to an unacceptable behaviour.

 

Reporting

Revveon strongly encourages its stakeholders to adopt a zero-tolerance approach to the conduct described herein and to implement processes to report and take appropriate measures against such behaviour.

Revveon also encourages reporting of violations against this policy. We specifically expect people in senior positions or positions of power to report violations they may encounter as they are less vulnerable to retaliation or pressure.

Reporting can be made by email to Revveon at [email protected].

We take all complaints seriously and will investigate promptly. Every effort will be made to ensure the victim’s privacy is maintained whilst protecting the rights of the accused. The information obtained in the investigation will be communicated on a “need to know” basis. For some complaints, third party assistance may be required.

 

Remedial Action

Revveon has zero-tolerance for violations of this policy and if it is determined that a violation of this policy has occurred, effective remedial action will be taken. Such actions may include the following:

  • appropriate support to portfolio companies or other stakeholders to handle the violation;
  • informal or formal warning;
  • removal of responsibilities;
  • suspension;
  • termination of employment or contract;
  • reporting to authorities; and
  • follow-up monitoring to ensure that the inappropriate conduct or act has ceased.

 

For more information concerning Revveon’s zero-tolerance policy, please contact [email protected]. This policy is reviewed on an annual basis.
