Investment Thesis

Cool Climate Collective invests at the earliest stages to ‘multi-solve’ systemic climate risks by combining capital, foresight, and a network of operators and experts. They prioritise systems-level solutions (not one-off carbon accounting) across physical infrastructure and supply chains, offering small, catalytic pre-seed/seed checks plus operational support (IP, go-to-market, talent, policy) and incubating complementary initiatives and research.

Investment Focus

Who should take a closer look

Cool Climate Collective is most relevant for founders raising Pre-Seed and Seed rounds in Climate/Cleantech, Energy, Manufacturing, and Biotech, especially across global, with public check-size signals around $100k to $350k.

Focus statement

Early-stage climate and climate-adjacent technology that fixes systems at the seams — specifically across electrons (generation, storage, flexibility), atoms (materials, manufacturing), and flows (water, waste) — using a foresight-led, networked approach and catalytic pre-seed/seed capital ($100k–$350k).

Value Add

Collective due diligence and dealmaking: they ‘leverage the collective network to engage in the due diligence process’ and run ad-hoc investment committees that match scientific, domain and industry experts to deals.
Syndicate / SPV and co-investment options: members can 'Join the Syndicate (and invest via our SPVs into climate tech startups we collectively source and diligence)' and 'Co‑Invest with Us'.
Operational platform support beyond capital: explicit offers of 'IP support, go‑to‑market, talent, and policy navigation'.
Active incubation & research arm: operate initiatives and a research program ('foundations_') to identify systemic leverage points and fill strategic gaps in the transition.
Thesis framed around systems taxonomy: invests across 'electrons, atoms, and flows' rather than only emissions accounting.
Speed & founder-friendly check size: emphasis on 'Move at founder speed' with 'Pre-Seed / Seed checks ($100k–$350k)' and rapid, ad-hoc IC decisions.
