Aera VC

Our mission is to mobilise all market players and create tools to catalyse the transition to a sustainable economy. OUR WHY We’ve all been there - asking ourselves what WE can do about climate change. We’ve already cut flying, reduced meat consumption, and ordered less on Amazon. But all these measures sum up to a low single-digit CO2 tons reduction. We realised that we need to look at our workplace to have a real impact. How can we dedicate our time and resources to have a significant impact on humanity’s biggest challenge? This is how Extantia’s team came together. For us, as successful investors, unicorn founders, climate scientists & policy experts, it was a no-brainer. At Extantia, we combine our know-how in different areas to move the needle on climate change.

Capital for an economy that respects planetary limits. Some generations have built cathedrals. Some have navigated across oceans and expanded the frontiers of the known world. Others have had to rebuild war-torn continents. Our generation’s greatest challenge is equally immense: to create an economic system that respects the planet’s limits, and overcome the ecological crisis. If we are to rise to the challenge, we're going to have to innovate. In a radical way. This means taking risks - carefully considered, never unnecessary, ones. Having the courage to take the long view once again. Rewriting the rules of economic activity from the ground up, by standing alongside those who recognize that the greatest ambition of all lies in finding alternative means to create wealth. Our mission is to support the entrepreneurs who are repairing the world - from the very beginning of their journey, and with no time limit on our commitment. How? By bringing together a broad and diverse community of first-rate investors, and steering the flow of capital to where it is most likely to make a difference. One sector at a time, one start-up at a time, thereby increasing the number of tipping points. Allowing what will save us to thrive in the face of overwhelming adversity. So that we can finally initiate the systemwide transformational change which all of us are calling for, without always knowing where to start.

We partner with purpose-driven entrepreneurs who are tackling the climate emergency and creating a more sustainable world. What we do. Blume Equity is a climate-tech growth investor transforming the health of planet and people. We invest thematically with an impact lens in disruptive European scale-ups, partnering with businesses that are solving the climate emergency.

We partner with exceptional founders to take on the most significant, and unmet, challenges to our climate. With our deep backgrounds in fundamental analysis, ACCELR8 seeks to understand the holistic dynamics of each ecosystem, and invest behind technologies that will create reinforcing loops toward exponential change. We believe we can attract significant new capital to climate change investing by proving that high social impact and profits are sustainably achievable outcomes. We reinvest our profits into social impact research, philanthropy and advocacy for a just economic transition. Based in Boston, we also love to support the New England innovation and investment ecosystem. We bring together deep backgrounds in science, strategy, and investing. We believe that only by understanding the system dynamics of the areas in which we invest can we effectively assess and support the exponential change required to save our environment. We will invest in and support innovators who can deliver that potential. At ACCELR8, we are lifelong learners, looking to engage with the climate scientists, energy policy makers, farmers, consumers, investors and entrepreneurs whom we join in this fight. If you share our sense of urgency and believe investment has a role to play addressing this existential threat, let's talk. Reach out.
