Investment thesis

Pulse Fund is a Los Angeles-based venture capital fund investing in scalable climate companies across four cross-sector verticals: Food & Agriculture, Energy Transition, Infrastructure, and Mobility. The firm's core thesis holds that "the Earth is a single system" and that "silos will not decarbonize the planet — cross-sector investment will." Pulse targets high-growth, vertically integrated companies that deliver superior margins, outsized financial returns, and supply chain risk mitigation, partnering with visionary teams "building for a century" whose solutions span the physical economy. Beyond capital, Pulse amplifies founder success through strategic guidance, catalytic partnerships, governance support, operational expertise, and access to alternative financing including project financing and grants.
