Investment Thesis

Earthshot Ventures invests early in foundational technologies—compute efficiency for AI, the energy that powers it, and critical mineral supply chains—because these foundations will produce the largest outcomes of the coming decade. They target Pre-Seed to Series B companies globally that can be “cheaper, better, or faster than the status quo,” backing category-defining teams and accelerating growth with operator playbooks, networks, and catalytic capital (via a sister fund) to scale companies capable of winning trillion-dollar markets while delivering measurable climate impact.

Value Add

  • Highly selective: "We invest in fewer than 0.4% of the companies we evaluate."
  • Integration with a purpose-built sister fund (Elemental Impact) to mobilize catalytic and institutional capital and de-risk deployment across nonprofit and for-profit vehicles
  • Portfolio tilt toward AI: "Today, more than 70% of our active portfolio companies have AI at the core of their product."
  • Cross-disciplinary focus on the intersection of AI, software, robotics, and critical systems
  • Practical, go-to-market orientation: looks for "fast paths to revenue and repeatable go-to-market motion," leveraging playbooks proven in tech and energy
  • Global stage coverage (Pre-Seed to Series B) with emphasis on scaling to very large ("trillion-dollar") markets
