Measurable impact
We seek investments that generate a measurable, long-term positive effect on social, environmental and financial outcomes.
About us
An investment company rooted in entrepreneurship.
We invest entrepreneurially by providing capital to innovative, responsible, and future-oriented ventures, thereby thoughtfully fostering and preserving entrepreneurship as a value across generations.
ARGOng Investment AG is a privately held investment company based in Baar, Switzerland, backed by a family with a long tradition of entrepreneurship. We invest our own capital, thinking in decades rather than quarters and standing by the companies and partners we back.
We identify impact where others don't notice it.
Our approach
Impact as a lens, not a label.
We believe that capital is a powerful lever for change, and that financial success, societal progress and staying within planetary boundaries depend on each other.
That is why impact is not a separate category or screen for us, but a core lens across all our decisions. Some of the greatest impact lies in established industries: in bringing new technology, new business models and new thinking to sectors that others have long written off or overlooked.
Additionality
Wherever possible, our capital should make a difference that would not happen otherwise.
Stewards and catalysts
We are not passive capital. We act as a thoughtful, entrepreneurial partner to the companies we back.
Across generations
Our horizon is long-term. We combine the openness of innovation with the continuity of a family tradition.
