Working at
Nobon

NOBON is a Stockholm-based FinTech startup founded in 2020, that launched with the goal of mobilizing capital to developing markets and bridging the SDG-funding gap. Through the Investure platform, we've supported African companies in raising equity, debt and blended finance funding, and supported professional investors in co-investing and syndicating deals. In 2021, NOBON won Mastercard's programme for future "Impact Unicorns". With a vision to create impact at scale, we've now expanded into the voluntary carbon market through a new carbon credit platform. Through the new NOBON platform, we strive to empower local communities in lower-income countries to develop and own carbon projects through carbon financing. We offer a better way to buy, trade, retire and custody carbon credits for global buyers, and we promote financial inclusion for communities in developing countries through integrated financial products, all while accelerating the global transition to net zero.
