Vision & Strategy

Kouros is mobilising its technical and financial expertise to make a useful and rapid contribution to these two urgent challenges.

To this end, and under the impetus of its founder and investor, Kouros is developing a unique business model; acting both as an investor in existing companies as well as an entrepreneur, developing its own projects.

Kouros provides with both financial support and an in-depth expertise over questions of renewable energy production, transport and distribution infrastructures as well as cutting-edge technologies. The link between technologies and infrastructure is at the heart of Kouros’ development model.

To ensure this rapid transition and respond to the climate urgency, Kouros is developing an approach that lies at the intersection of technology and usage.

A method that consists of both removing the technological barriers and developing in parallel the infrastructures necessary for the deployment and adoption of these technologies.
