Bridges Sustainable Growth Funds have made a majority investment into Evora Global, a UK consultancy that helps clients around the globe to improve the sustainability and reduce their climate risk of their real estate portfolios.
Founded in 2011 by Chris Bennett, Ed Gabbitas and Paul Sutcliffe, Evora has grown rapidly in recent years, following the addition of key senior hires and as demand for action on sustainable finance and climate risk has risen up the agenda of corporations generally. The company, which now has over 200 staff, provides consultancy services to many of the biggest names in global real estate investment, and has developed its own software, SIERA, to help its clients make better investment decisions around sustainability.
Evora has a strong commitment to sustainability and impact, and specifically chose to partner with Bridges because of our market-leading credentials in this area (including our status as a ‘Best for the World’ B Corp). In addition, our track record as one of the UK’s leading investors in sustainable real estate was also critical in understanding this market and establishing our credentials as a partner of choice.
