In line with this, Huhtamaki is continuously investing in innovation and seeking to develop next-generation, transformative innovation. The investment into Emerald Technology Ventures' sustainable packaging fund follows Huhtamaki's earlier collaboration with start-ups - launched in 2020 as part of Huhtamaki's centennial - which demonstrated the value of partnerships in identifying, developing and deploying systemic solutions to deliver game-changing sustainable packaging solutions for the future.

Emerald Technology Ventures - a leader in industrial technology venture capital - announced the launch of a fund focused on sustainable packaging in April 2022. The fund is one of the first venture-backed investment vehicles targeting the full packaging lifecycle.
