Key industries

Carbon13 is sector agnostic, we invest in every industry from chemicals to law, but our work to address challenges to Earth’s Vital Systems means the bulk of our founders are working in energy, materials, food systems, transport or enabling platforms such as regtech or fintech.

Here’s a sample:

Nium

Green ammonia without Haber Bosch or fossil fuels.

Materials Nexus

AI powered platform for the discovery of new materials

Kita logo

Cocoon

From Cambridge to the planet

Carbon13 originated in the Cambridge hotspot of innovation, academia, and entrepreneurship. We have since expanded to the EU, building ventures from our base in Berlin.

Our mission is to bring world class talent together, supercharge their venture development, and ensure maximum carbon impact is built into their venture’s value proposition.

Our founders come to us to change entire industries for the climate, for people, and for the planet.
