A pre Series A Venture Fund for Climate Tech startups in India

Building an ecosystem for climate entrepreneurship. CCF has built what has become the largest early-stage climate tech startup accelerator platform in South Asia – and soon, we are expanding across the Global South.

An early stage climate tech startup focused investment syndication platform for retail investors looking for an alternative investment class with climate impact.

Climate Collective and New Energy Nexus (formerly the California Clean Energy Fund) have partnered to create New Energy Nexus India. Our aim is to strengthen the Indian clean energy entrepreneurship ecosystem. New Energy Nexus is the leading global ecosystem of funds and accelerators supporting diverse clean energy entrepreneurs. We were founded in 2004 to spread climate solutions with entrepreneurship support and financial innovation. We now operate programs in 10 countries - across the US, China, India, Southeast Asia and East Africa - key “markets that matter” for electricity and mobility.

The Climate Tech Investment Network provides investment syndication support services to institutional investors and angel networks through a deal-flow centric platform to catalyze early-stage capital into Climate Tech startups in Developing Asia. We offer investor education, networking and research support.Details on our bi-annual summits: https://climatetechinvestmentsummit.com/
