The Radical Fund

About

The Radical Fund is a climate-focused, early-stage venture capital (VC) fund dedicated to supporting Pre-Seed, Seed and up to Series-A entrepreneurs in Southeast Asia to scale solutions that contribute to a more sustainable future.

The Radical Fund invests in founders who support the region’s climate transition and who are able to deliver risk-mitigated commercial and impact returns. Our primary focus is on climate adaptation ventures that show potential to reach mass markets, achieve mass adoption and therefore deliver tangible climate-resilience outcomes at scale.

Our Vision

To transform SEA into the world’s leading climate venture economy.

Our Mission

To invest financial and human capital, supporting early-stage ventures to deliver scaled climate outcomes.

Our Culture

Our goals are audacious, and we want to work with people who share our vision and conviction for pursuing climate adaptation at scale through entrepreneurship. We are building a results-oriented, specialised team, with people who thrive on agile and human-centric approaches to venturing.

At Radical, you will learn faster than you ever have before, being exposed to all aspects of venture capital and venture building. You will work with highly-specialised and diverse talent from across the region, as well as globally, and you will help us build a collaborative, inclusive, and supportive community.

All our team members are leaders, and we do not conform to the standard ‘corporate culture’ of high bureaucracy and hierarchy. We believe that good ideas can come from anywhere, and we love to build our way out of uncertainty. To ensure that The Radical Fund is the region’s best partner for founders contributing to climate change solutions, we look for people who bring experience in working directly with ventures and are hands-on, beyond advising or consulting startups.
