ABOUT KOMIZO*

Komizo helps investors and entrepreneurs take care of their social and environmental impacts, understand why they should do so, and redefine performance.

Our purpose ? To help organisations, be there "native impact" or "undergoing positive change", better understand, steer and maximise their positive impacts on society, while minimising their negative externalities. 

 

We are a boutique consultancy, with deep expertise in strategic and operational support. We believe that business performance cannot be separated from impact performance, and that investors of the XXII century will consider the triple helix "risk-return-impact" when assessing investment opportunities.

*Komizo means to take care in ancient greek

TEAM

Get to know us

Corentin Decouty, Komizo's founder

Sans titre_edited_edited_edited_edited_e

Corentin has worked over 10 years with European private equity investors and SMEs, initially providing commercial due diligence support (over 50 projects completed, equally distributed between France and the UK) and since 2019, impact-related support.

 

Early 2020, Corentin helped Siparex and XAnge win a competitive tender for a €100m impact investment fund, now called Mutuelles Impact, which he has continued to accompany since then as a part-time Chief Impact Officer. Since early 2023, Corentin has also been ESG Operating Partner for Siparex ETI.

In 2012, Corentin conducted a piece of research for 2° Investing Initiative on how to measure the contribution of institutional investors' asset allocation to the 2°C climate objective. A foundation stone which helped 2° Investing Initiative and then the likes of Carbone 4 and I Care Environment go much further on the topic and have a tremendous impact on the way the finance world now operates and is regulated.

Corentin is a graduate from Essec Business School (MSc in Management) and Imperial College Longon (Msc Environmental Technology & Energy Policy), and has followed courses at IFP School (energy economics) and Duke University (MBA). Corentin is also a proud father of two, and a keen trail runner.

Depending on the project needs, Corentin can work independently or with experts in complementary fields such as those illustrated below :

TESTIMONIALS

”Corentin's involvement was decisive for Siparex in winning the call for tenders from the Mutualité Française to set up an impact fund specializing in healthcare: he was able to take the lead on the coordination of the collective effort with conviction and to put forward proposals. Following this success, Corentin has accompanied Mutuelles Impact in the analysis of investment opportunities, the construction and monitoring of impact roadmaps, and the operational support of SMEs in transformation - managing workstreams related to carbon management, human resources, "société à mission" & Bcorp labels."
