About
Blue Horizon is a Swiss investment firm dedicated to the sustainable food transition through alternative protein and foodtech investments. Their portfolio spans plant-based, cultivated, and fermentation-derived food innovation. The firm backs companies globally from seed through growth with a sustainability-first thesis.
Blue Horizon is a global investment firm focused on accelerating the transition to a sustainable food system. They invest in alternative proteins, sustainable ingredients, and food technology companies driving the shift away from animal-based products. The firm differentiates itself through its pioneering role in the sustainable food space and global reach across Europe, North America, and Asia.
Founded in 2016 by Swiss serial entrepreneur Roger Lienhard, Blue Horizon pioneered institutional alternative protein investing through nearly 100 investments across alt meat, dairy, and seafood since 2018. CEO Björn Witte brings strategy consulting experience from Roland Berger, while Managing Partner Michel Hirschi previously served as CFO of Meyer Burger. The team built early positions in landmark alt-protein companies including Beyond Meat, Impossible Foods, and Mosa Meat. Following a 2024 restructuring that transferred Fund I's portfolio to Collateral Good, the Blue Horizon Corporation continues as Lienhard's private investment vehicle focused on vertically integrated alt-protein infrastructure.
