Climentum Capital

Climentum Capital is a European venture capital firm dedicated to investing in early-stage companies that are actively reducing CO₂ emissions within industrial sectors. Established in 2020, the firm focuses on hardware and deep-tech solutions, augmented by software, which they refer to as 'hard-tech'. Their investment strategy targets six key sectors with the highest potential for CO₂ emission reductions: Next Generation Renewables, Food & Agriculture, Industry & Manufacturing, Buildings & Architecture, Transportation & Mobility, and Waste & Materials. Climentum Capital operates across Europe, with offices in Copenhagen, Berlin, Stockholm, and Oslo, and primarily invests in Seed and Series A stages, offering initial investments ranging from €1 to €5 million. A distinctive feature of their approach is a double incentives structure, where both CO₂ emission reductions and financial returns are considered, ensuring that investments contribute meaningfully to climate mitigation efforts. The firm's team is based in some of Europe's strongest climate tech hubs: Berlin, Copenhagen, Stockholm, and Oslo, and is known for its gender-balanced partner group consisting of two women and two men. Climentum Capital's mission is to provide catalytic capital for companies to pass key inflection points, achieve full scale, and contribute substantially to mitigating climate change. They envision a world where all industries are sustainable, low-carbon, and circular, and are committed to reshaping the very fabric of industries through their investments. The firm has made several investments in companies such as Novatron, Scale Energy, Qvantum, ecoLocked, ZeroPoint Technologies, Rodinia Generation, Aegir Insights, Kärnfull, and Jolt Electrodes, among others. Their portfolio reflects a strong commitment to supporting innovative solutions that address critical sustainability challenges across various industrial sectors.
