Venture Capital Jobs and Internships at ArcTern Ventures
Venture capital for a better planet. Since 2012, we’ve been investing in entrepreneurs obsessed with solving humanity’s greatest challenges—climate change and sustainability. We’re former startup founders ourselves, we get it, and like you, we believe technology can save our planet.
ArcTern Ventures is a venture capital firm obsessed with helping solve the climate crisis and rethinking sustainability. We invest globally in breakthrough technology startups that can significantly reduce GHG emissions and environmental impact. We were founded on the premise that accelerating the transition to a carbon-neutral economy will disrupt all industries and present an unprecedented opportunity for outsized financial returns. Solving our planet’s biggest problems will lead to big rewards—for companies, their investors, and of course, Mother Earth.
Wherever you operate, if your startup solves a carbon problem or a sustainability issue, we want to hear about it.
We work hands-on with founders, lending them our expertise—and our global network—to help accelerate their success.
In our previous lives, each of our partners founded and led the growth of many successful startups from idea to exit.
Sustainability is embedded in every investment decision we make. We partner with bold founders to help them scale breakthrough solutions that will accelerate our response to climate change. We believe outsized financial returns will come as a result of making significant impacts.
