Summa Equity (Summa) has appointed Bertrand Camus, the former CEO of French multinational utility company SUEZ, as a thematic partner.
At Summa, Camus will be a member of the Resource Efficiency team, working to identify investment opportunities, develop strategies, and support portfolio companies. Camus will primarily focus on the circularity, waste, and water sectors, drawing on his lengthy career at SUEZ, where his final role was group chief executive officer.
The Resource Efficiency strategy’s five subthemes—circularity and waste, green mobility, healthy low-carbon diets, sustainable industry, and net-zero energy—will receive strong backing from Camus in light of his experience.
Camus started his career in the early 1990s at BNP Paribas before joining SUEZ in 1994, where he worked until 2022. Over an almost 30-year stint at the company, Camus held numerous senior leadership roles including: chief operating officer of Aguas Argentinas; chief executive officer of Suez North America; chief executive officer of SUEZ Water France; and finally, group chief executive officer. Camus holds a Master of Science in Civil Engineering degree from the Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées in Paris.
