Green River
Funding the Future by allocating funds where they matter the most

Green River VC & Green River Corporate

Our Green River funds long term investment strategy is to bring investment power to the most impactful and innovative solutions, discovered through Climate Impact Methodology*

By investing in verified impact companies (scope 4), funds are allocated where it really matters to move the future towards a low-carbon ecomony, generating attractive returns to our investors.

Scope 1, 2, 3 and 4

For both investors and startups, the traditional framework for assessing environmental impact has been rooted in the measurement of direct and indirect greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, known as Scope 1,2 and 3.

However, the promising addition of Scope 4, or “avoided emissions”, is reshaping our understanding of a company’s environmental impact.

Scope 4 goes beyond the emissions produced by a company’s operations and indirect emissions from its value chain (Scope 1,2,and 3) to account for the emissions saved by its products or services in the market (Scope 4)

Green River Fund Methodology and overall investment criterias

Sustainability and climate impact is embedded in every investment decision we make and are therefore considered the back bone in all our funds.

Furthermore through our initial meet with the company we look for uniqueness in areas as Team members, growth potential, IP rights and patents and the forecast for great financial return for our investors.

Our unique approach

As climate impact is the back bone in all our investments we always start the Due Diligence process with an unique impact analysis conducted by ClimatePoint Impact Methodology.

If the company fail to show real impact the process stops and we move on to the next case.

When the company passes our investment criterias we allocate funds.

And now we move to the second stage of our unique approch!

The two most common reasons why start up fails:

1.Lack of funding at an early stage

2.Paying customers = revenue

Through our unique approach we take care of both these things:

By allocating funds, start ups can continue to develop their business and by introducing them to our corporate network we help them onboard paying customers.

During our ownership we will support the most promising ones with backing rounds to scale their business before exiting with a better outlook for great financial returns for our investors.

Green River Corporate Investment Verticals - Allocating funds to value chain climate mitigation for corporates.
Travel & Mobility

New solutions for a lower climate footprint in transport, travel and logistics. Within this vertical you will find companies working on how we can transport people and goods in a more carbon neutral manner, allowing for a sustainable way of travel in the future.

Food & Agrotech

Food and food-production are one of our greatest challenges and are currently accounting for 13% of global greenhouse gas emissions. ClimatePoint believes there exist significant decarbonization and value creation opportunities across the entire agriculture value chain.

Green Energy

Batteries, hydrogen and thermal solutions are an integral part of tomorrows energy mix and crucial to the decarbonization of our climate. That's why this vertical seek to find technologies working for lower emissions within use, transportation, storage and production of energy.

Circular Economy

A linear economy (take, make, use, dispose, pollute) is both unsustainable and inefficient. We seek to fund companies aiming to accelerate the transition into a circular economy and how we all can better captivate the resources used today.

Adaptation & Mitigation

As the effects of the climate crisis starts affecting our daily lives, adapting to a new climate is vital. How can we adapt to increased flooding, storms, and drought, and how can we mitigate the effects of starvation, land use and wildfires? This vertical invests in the new solutions.

Right Now

Many emission-free technologies already exist, but in some parts of the world they yet to been implemented. In this vertical we focus on scale-up of renewable solutions in developing and growing economies.

Buildings & Construction

The construction industry is in great need of new solutions across its’ value chain. New materials that enable lower energy usage, fewer resources, less surplus materials, and new methods for manufacturing. This may include everything from new cement, 3D printing houses – or just a new way of working and living.

Maritime

Life under and above the ocean are a central part of the Sustainable Development Goals, and an integral part of our climate and nature going forward. ClimatePoint Maritime focuses on solutions within the maritime industry, both on and below the water line.
