About Inlandsis

Created in 2017, the Inlandsis Fund is a North American leader in financing projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Fund offers a unique project financing solution in regulated and voluntary carbon markets and has played an essential role in catalyzing numerous GHG emission reduction projects since its inception. Its growing investment portfolio includes over forty projects generating carbon credits in North America, including in the agriculture, forestry, mining and industrial sectors. Expanding on the success of its first fund, Inlandsis has recently launched a second fund of 160M$ CDN with the goal of scaling both its climate and financial returns. This is a rare opportunity to join the team of a leading environmental investment fund and make substantial contributions to its investments, portfolio and strategy. The Fund is managed by Fondaction Asset Management with support from Priori-T Capital, both based in Montreal.
