Investment Team

Climate Tech & Industrial Tech

Technology is not only the key to successfully transitioning to a zero-carbon economy but will also create the sector-defining companies of the future in the process.


That’s why our sector-focused investment teams actively fund Climate Tech startups in their respective verticals, from circular economy marketplaces to sustainable fintech startups and beyond.


And our Climate Tech & Industrial Tech team, leveraging a network of leading European industrial corporations and C-Suite leaders, partners with enterprise software, hardware, and hardware-enabled software startups that are targeting today’s most polluting sectors — manufacturing, construction & real estate, energy, mobility & transportation, and agriculture. These industries alone account for more than 70% of Co2 emissions in Europe. Decarbonizing them is no longer an option; it’s our duty.


If you’re a mission-driven Climate Tech startup operating in any of our core investment sectors, let’s connect. Our extensive network of industry decision-makers, corporate partners, top-tier investors, and unparalleled sector knowledge and experience will help you turn your mission-driven startup into a globally successful company.
