We look for startups to address global climate and UN Sustainable Development goals in the following areas: Low carbon mobility solutions Sustainable Energy & Resource Optimization: We're looking for companies that can help power our societies with cleaner energy and optimize our resource utilization to hand over our beautiful earth to the next generations. Sustainable Food & Agriculture: We look at solutions that enable a regenerative and carbon-negative economy, such as alternative protein, ag innovation, carbon sequestration, and blue economy. Sustainable production and heavy industry: We support innovative technologies and solutions eliminating carbon from society in industry, such as alternative plastics, sustainable materials, and processing Decarbonized built environment: We support innovations that contribute to energy efficiency, low carbon construction, and end-use. Integrated Solutions: Further holistic decarbonization efforts such as carbon capture, circular economy, climate risk, insurance tech, green finance, behavioral change, consumer B2B+B2C solutions including carbon accounting, reporting, and more Vectors Impact Pledge We are dedicated to supporting companies that can create a positive impact in solving global challenges. We encourage our portfolio companies to sign the Vectors Impact Pledge, which they quantify their current positive impacts and their long term impact goals

We have partnered with today’s largest industrial titans to invest in and accelerate the category-leading industrial giants of tomorrow. From pioneering the nuclear renaissance to producing abundant sustainable fuels and hydrogen at industrial scale or bringing full circularity to the fashion industry. We back and accelerate today’s Carnegies and Rockefellers transforming the industrial complex with breakthrough technologies.8090 Industries is an investment firm focused on leading the next industrial revolution. Partnered with over 20 global conglomerates, we leverage our collective expertise and strategic assets to invest in and accelerate the category-defining businesses of tomorrow. We believe a new generation of trillion dollar businesses will be created around decarbonization, synthetic biology, aerospace, artificial intelligence, energy, and infrastructure. Our flagship Decarbonization initiative focuses on transforming the industrial complex with breakthrough, zero-carbon technologies and significant economic advantages. We have led investments in breakout companies including Cemvita Factory (bio-refineries decarbonizing heavy industry), Oklo (advanced nuclear microreactors), Infinium (sustainable electrofuels), Quaise (Terrawatt-scale geothermal energy), and Circ (waste free textiles). 8090 Industries has a team of seasoned investors and proven operators with a combined 20+ years of consistent top-decile fund returns, 100+ years of operational leadership, and multiple PhDs with awards of academic excellence in their respective fields.

To help fix the climate, we are going to need solutions across every sector. We need new and novel technologies to decarbonise the hard to abate sectors but also technologies to help us scale proven decarbonisation solutions. We have unique experience at the intersection of deep technology, energy, infrastructure & industry needed in climate tech. We understand both investors and founders given experience in institutional, and wholesale fund management, founding a startup and angel investing. Climate Tech Partners’ differentiated approach:Corporate partnerships Sectorial specialisation Experienced team Extensive due diligence Expert networks Climate Tech Partners Ecosystem building We believe that bringing together partners with complimentary skills is essential to support ecosystems and accelerate the development of new projects and their supply chains. Climate Tech Partners brings together all these parties via our unique fund structure, corporate partners, circle network of experts, implementation specialists and non-investment corporate partners.

We back regenerative technology companies that are restoring the planet from the atom up. Why regenerative? Because investment should be an act of optimism. We can’t incrementally fix what is fundamentally broken. Sustainability is not enough. The next generation of iconic companies will work with nature rather than against it. Driven by a convergence of technology, demand and talent, the only limit is our collective imagination. Together, we will create a better way of living for all without destroying the planet we depend on. 25% of greenhouse gas emissions caused by the food and agriculture industry. We can transform this carbon culprit to a carbon sink. $>3T per year of materials and products will be redesigned from synthetic to bio-based to meet our net-zero targets. 45% of carbon emissions need to be cut this decade and 100% by 2050. The entire economy must be radically reinvented. Our Investment Areas Food & Agriculture Nature-inspired technologies enable a healthier food system that meets the needs of all while healing the planet. Regenerative food systems can mitigate 25% of global emissions as well as being a carbon sink for other industries. The co-benefits of increased biodiversity, reduced water consumption and improved food quality, make this a truly win-win-win area of focus. Alternative Food Production, Soil Health, Supply Chain, Robotics and Automation, Microbiome Materials & Products From synthetic chemicals and fossil-fuels to living and bio-based. Ubiquitous materials such as textiles, building materials and packaging that make up our physical world are being reimagined thanks to step-changes in technology. Materials of the future will work for the planet rather than against it and be more beautiful, cheaper and infinitely scalable. Regenerative Fibres, Textiles, Dyes, Feedstock, Plastics, Building Materials, Enabling Infrastructure Decarbonisation Reinventing every sector of the economy is an urgent imperative and generational opportunity. We acknowledge that not every sector will reach net-zero in our lifetime. While reducing emissions towards zero as fast as possible we will simultaneously accelerate our progress by harnessing nature-based solutions to remove carbon faster, cheaper and more permanently. Mother Earth has been doing this for 4 billion years! Nature-based carbon removal, Biodiversity, Enabling technologies, Marketplaces, Carbon-to-value, Next-Gen Infrastructure
