Carbon Zero Capital

Who wants to start a company in the Sustainability space, with a focus on B2B SaaS? If you do, then this may be the right opportunity for you. In partnership with Carbon Zero Capital (Eric Tong & Koray Parmaks), we're launching the B2B Sustainability Venture Challenge. We're looking to bring in one Founder in Residence (FIR) to work on validating new opportunities in the sustainability space. The goal? Build + fund a startup. And put you in charge with capital, support resources and most of the startup's equity. We're looking at a broad set of opportunities around helping businesses manage the regulatory, risk and compliance challenges of achieving their ESG and net-zero targets. Here are a few areas we're exploring: * Compliance-driven use cases & data management to leverage automation & AI to collect, analyze, verify data & report on sustainability metrics for mid-market * A focus on companies doing business in multiple regulatory regions * Helping asset managers navigate the rapidly evolving regulatory landscape & find new opportunities related to sustainability / ESG * Helping PE firms manage risk and grow valuations of their assets across the ownership cycle by improving sustainability and ESG performace * Solutions to support the growing number of climate change consultants entering the market These are just a few opportunity areas--there are others, and we want to hear from you too. 1. If you've been looking at this market and think the venture studio model is a good fit, reach out. 2. If you have a very early stage startup in the space, reach out. 3. If you're curious to learn more or partner with us, reach out. We're excited to be working in this space and collaborating with Carbon Zero Capital to bring domain expertise, capital and resources together. Further information is available in the comments.
