How climate technology aims to help Indian startup

Green Frontier Capital, an early-stage venture capital fund with operations in India and the U.S., has announced a strategic partnership with Companion Capital, a growth equity initiative focused on climate solutions. This partnership is pivotal for startups and companies in the climate technology sector, as it provides access to funding beyond the Series A funding stage.

The collaboration brings together Green Frontier Capital's expertise in supporting startups during their early stages with Companion Capital's track record of driving growth and profitability for rapidly expanding enterprises. Together, they aim to propel businesses in the climate technology sector towards greater success while aligning with global sustainability goals.

This partnership highlights the importance of cooperation across the investment spectrum, from initial-stage support to growth capital infusion, as a pivotal force in advancing environmental innovation in India. This is particularly important given that the global climate tech market is projected to cross $1 trillion by 2033.

"Green Frontier Capital and Companion’s combined strengths will foster innovation, drive impact, and generate substantial returns while making a significant positive difference to the planet.”

Green Frontier Capital's deep-rooted connections in the Indian climate tech ecosystem, and ability to identify winning ideas and teams, paired with Companion’s growth equity skillset and connectivity across multiple growth markets, offer a complete solution for Indian climate businesses looking to grow locally and internationally. Together, we aim to shape the future of climate investing in India.

 

Both investors share a strong dedication to supporting forward-thinking businesses committed to a more environmentally sustainable future. This strategic partnership is expected to enhance and streamline their investment procedures, providing startups with an expanded array of resources, mentorship, and the financial backing needed to unlock their full potential throughout various stages of their growth journey, including the eventual exit phase.

 

The partnership is expected to generate a series of collaborative initiatives, networking opportunities, and knowledge-sharing sessions for investors, stakeholders, and entrepreneurs alike.
