CarbonN Venture Partners

We have two types of offerings. Colbridge Growth is for firms that are at seed stage or beyond and seek to scale. We act either as consultants for specific growth-focused projects or as interim execs to execute longer-term remits. We focus on all commercial aspects of early stage businesses - including market understanding, licensing strategy, business development, sales growth, marketing mix, financials, and fundraising. If funding is sought we can also make select investor introductions through an extensive international network. We act as a management consultant, business development professional, and investment banker, all rolled into one. This is ideally suited to the needs of young growing technology-based businesses, who are often short of time, staff, and money. Colbridge Studio is a venture studio for very early stage startups that are looking for a commercial partner to help develop their business. We act as a commercial co-founder, providing the mature entrepreneurial and commercial guidance to help founders get the company off the ground. We invest up to $30k ourselves and can help fill out angel or pre-seed funding needs through an extensive investor network. What we believe We believe that we are at a critical juncture in humanity's journey where environmental disaster and massive social upheaval will occur if we don't act quickly. Business and technology can provide some of the answers. We are seeking similarly mission-driven entrepreneurs to partner with. Here are some of the areas that particularly interest us: GHG Emissions Reduction: This is the defining crisis of our time. Projects to help reduce carbon in the atmosphere and to mitigate its effects are desperately needed. This includes arenas such as renewable & alternative baseload power, circular economy, hydrogen, bioplastics, alt foods, and carbon credits. Water: Water systems are being disrupted by the changing climate. We need ways to clean water, utilize seawater, and generate new sources of freshwater. Regenerative Agriculture: Agriculture has the power to restore the land and water systems that support it. We believe this will be an essential tool to clean the earth while feeding the growing population. New Grid: The massive increase in renewable energy required to meet net zero targets will need an overhauled grid. Energy Storage: One of the key roadblocks to greater penetration of renewables is the limited nature of energy storage. We are looking for technologies to improve the cost, effectiveness, and robustness of energy storage. Metals, Minerals & Materials: Significant increases in volume of key metals, minerals and materials will be required for our changing energy mix. We are interested in technologies and business models for increased supply and reuse/recycling plus the development of new better materials.

Astanor brings together capital, deep sector knowledge and a strong network of entrepreneurs, impact investors, technologists, scientists, farmers, chefs, policy makers and food lovers to give rise to a future of food that is nourishing, regenerative, scalable, trusted and delicious. Mission-driven investors, from soil to gut Astanor is an impact investor, delivering financial, social and environmental returns in equal measure. We believe in the future of an agrifood system that provides affordable nutrients for 10 billion people, preserves and regenerates natural resources, actively contributes to decarbonization and protects land and ocean biodiversity. At Astanor, we are driven by a pressing urgency to combat climate change, biodiversity loss and improve the health of humanity and the planet. Sustainability and impact were part of the firm’s founding principles and remain an area we are committed to excel in. Our mission as impact investors is to find, support and scale the most disruptive, impactful solutions to accelerate progress towards global sustainability targets. Our priorities Only highly disruptive, scalable new technology guided by a deep understanding of, and respect for, nature will revolutionize the agrifood sector. Astanor is founded on the thesis that a healthy food system starts from the soil, is connected, transparent and local, nurtures diversity and grows food that is our and the environment’s best medicine. Accelerating regenerative agri/aquaculture finding innovative solutions that enable the global regenerative use of resources, soil & ocean stewardship and scalable agroecology. Connecting the value chain implementing sustainable supply chains, fair remuneration, traceability & transparency, circularity and eliminating waste. Innovating agrifood transformation processes facilitating the sustainable production of food, textiles & agriculture- based materials and restore human and planet health. Astanor’s investment process is guided by 6 principlesRegeneration: Soil is the new black. Health starts, and is sustained for the long-term for people and the planet, from fertile soil and healthy oceans. Food integrity: Insight breeds intelligence. Traceability, transparency, fair labor and supply chain practices will restore trust, decrease risk and strengthen communities. Sustainable diet: Resilience rooted in diversity. New sources of food are required to end overreliance on a few species, monoculture systems and climate-destructive diets. Fresh & delicious: Quality led innovation. New approaches are needed in distribution, packaging that preserves without polluting and urban agriculture to put great tasting food on the table. Nourishment: Food as medicine. Sustainably grown and minimally processed foods protect and promote health. Protection: Waste not, want not. Greater care and efficient use of natural capital, alongside new methods to repurpose waste, are needed to repair the planet.

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.
