G2 Venture Partners

Historically, economies and emissions have grown in lockstep. We invest in companies that break this link, growing the economy while reducing global emissions. We invest in companies driving Green Growth. We work together as a team to find, build and support companies that are modernizing and revolutionizing the traditional industries like transportation, manufacturing, agriculture, energy, supply chain, and logistics, that together make up over half of the global economy. As Investors, We:PRIORITIZE SERVICE TO THE PORTFOLIO We are attentive to entrepreneurs’ needs, are responsive, and are respectful. We see ourselves as service providers to our portfolio and aim to be a “go-to” board member for our portfolio companies. VALUE ENTREPRENEURIAL EXPERIENCE All of our partners have founded companies or have actively incubated companies as founding board members. We have empathy and a fundamental respect for the entrepreneurial experience. BRING A POWERFUL NETWORK OF CUSTOMERS AND CO-INVESTORS We cultivate and manage a network of more than 500 executives at major industrial and technology companies to assist our teams with product feedback, partnerships or potential customer relationships. Selling into ‘old-school’ industries takes both novel technology and novel business model approaches, as well as connections to forward-thinking early adopters. We connect our portfolio to a network that accelerates time-to-market and tests new ideas for young companies. OPERATE AS A TEAM We have worked together as a team for over eight years and have developed high-functioning, direct communications and processes to collaborate on investment execution and assist on portfolio work. Importantly, our journey together through both successes and failures provides us with a clear, shared view of what makes businesses successful. VALUE INTEGRITY AND TRANSPARENCY These values inform our behavior with each other, with investors, with portfolio companies, and with other stakeholders. We build value through trusting relationships with entrepreneurs and stakeholders. We hold ourselves to the same standard with every company and person with whom we interact: portfolio companies, competitors, other investors, and ecosystem participants. We are equally open about good and bad news. We don’t use information as currency. We strive to be apolitical. INTEGRATE WORK AND VALUES We back mission-driven teams. Our experience is that mission-driven teams who believe they will change the world for the better build more successful companies than mercenary teams. We are driven to have a positive impact, and we choose to work with companies that share those values. LEVERAGE OUR ROOTS AT KLEINER PERKINS Years of managing the Green Growth Fund at Kleiner Perkins, a partnership with a 45-year track record, have ingrained many of the foundational goals and practices that shaped Kleiner Perkins: a focus on entrepreneurs, active company building, and a willingness to think big. We remain actively involved with Kleiner Perkins as we continue to manage the firm’s Green Growth Fund and its existing portfolio companies. We are also headquartered in Silicon Valley, at the center of California’s technology ecosystem. This presence and network offers visibility into cutting edge technologies that will disrupt large industries in the coming years.

Caret Capital

It's a transformative era for India. Techades of opportunities lie ahead of us. However, industry cannot fully leverage this once-in-a-generation opportunity without fundamentally transforming their value chain. Mobility, Distribution and Employment are 3 key pillars of the value chain that have the highest potential for disruption and transformation, the impact of which will cut across industries and sectors. Technology startups that are optimising these three key aspects of the value chain have significant tail winds behind them. Also, India is moving towards Nett Zero emissions by 2070. This will require the country and the industry to adopt new technologies and transition to EV across logistics & mobility. Our goal is to enable industry find and pilot startup led innovations that will help them navigate the changed market dynamics, and improve profitability, scalability and sustainability.

Vireo Ventures

We believe that electrification and digitalization are the backbone of decarbonization and green transformation. Vireo Ventures is a seed- and pre-seed-stage VC. We invest in European tech start-ups that drive electrification. As Vireo we take the long-term view and support our portfolio companies wherever possible. We invest in B2B business models that pave the way towards an electrified and decarbonized world. Energy Supply The energy system is becoming decentral, carbon-neutral, and digital. We invest in startups that support the generation, supply, Power2X (e.g. green hydrogen), trading and optimization of green energy. Mobility Travel and mobility will undergo dramatic changes. Electric transportation will be the norm. We seek startups that support the build-out, utilization and re-usage (circular economy) of the EV and charging infrastructure. Cities & Buildings Continuing urbanization requires transformation of cities. We fund startups driving the management and optimization of (integrated) electrified power, gas, heat and mobility systems (sectoral coupling) of the built environment. Logistics Logistics will evolve to a fully integrated multimodal platform. We look for startups that enable the electrification of (last mile) delivery and innovate operations of logistics. Industry & Mittelstand Operations will be digitalized, electrified, and their carbon footprint significantly reduced. We seek startups that spearhead this fundamental transformation.
