Overture is an early-stage climate tech venture fund with a hyper-differentiated edge. We invest in climate startups and focus on helping those founders win government support and navigate regulatory complexity. The federal government has delivered a muscular industrial policy that erected a $1.0 Trillion wall of money for climate and a set of rules that will shape important new industries of the future. Each Overture portfolio company receives in-kind support from the country’s leading climate government affairs firm, Boundary Stone Partners, to unlock the full potential of federal, state, and municipal governments.

Every once in a while I come across an #investment firm with a really different edge and perspective.?Overture is one such firm. Their specialty is #policy – not just understanding the unique opportunities #climatetech companies have with government incentives and helping them navigate that tricky terrain, but also actually lobbying for policies that’ll benefit their portfolio companies. In the words of Overture Founder and Managing Partner Shomik Dutta, there’s a $1.2 trillion wall of government money coming downhill for climate companies. So Overture’s edge is meaningful and can make a big difference for a wide range of companies. Shomik and I discussed his background, how he moved into investing from politics, the opportunities recent #climatepolicy has created for startups, examples of Overture’s portfolio companies, how the firm has helped them, and much more, including what’s at stake in the upcoming #election. Speaking of the election – it’s next week. If you don’t yet have a plan for how to get your ballot in or haven’t called your friends and family to make sure they’re #voting, now’s the time. Shomik mentions a mobile app called?Reach?– a great tool to help you contact people you know in swing states.
