## About Virescent Ventures

Virescent Ventures invests in founders, technologies, and businesses that help achieve zero emissions and beyond.

At Virescent Ventures, we believe there's no need to choose between emissions impact and commercial impact.

We seek investments that address the largest, hardest-to-abate sources of emissions. In the present decade, we will see companies born that remake the physical economy in the way the internet remade the digital economy.

Virescent Ventures was born out of the Clean Energy Innovation Fund, part of the Clean Energy Finance Corporation.

We invest from pre-seed to late-stage growth capital, continuing to back great founders and companies as their needs evolve. We invest in deep tech and business model innovations, software and hardware.
