Notable quotes
“We see a lot of promising startups and talented founders that we can't support from our main funds, because they are just too early for us. Furthermore, there is not so much institutional capital available at pre-seed stage, so this project helps founders address the challenge. This initiative introduces a very patient capital, as well as ongoing support and access to our network of operators.”
“I look forward to sharing the insight I've gained in the water space by investing in and advising both water technology companies and energy companies. Ultimately, even more than energy, water plays an integral role in whether our communities and economies can thrive.”
“Technologies once considered uneconomic have emerged from obscurity to become one of the fastest-growing global industries. The key to the success of our industry is that over the past 10 years the economics of energy generation, distribution, and consumption have changed dramatically.”
