About The Fund
Anthropocene Ventures is a venture capital firm headquartered at 1 Ferry Building, San Francisco, CA 94110, with a focus on investing in early-stage companies spanning several industries, including Software (Web, Marketplace, SaaS), Hospitality & Events, Media, Retail & E-Commerce, CleanTech, A.I. & Big Data, Impact, Robotics, and UrbanTech. The firm places its target investments in companies that range from pre-seed to Series A stages, with investment amounts that range from a minimum of $100,000 to a maximum of $5,000,000, and a sweet spot of around $1,500,000. Anthropocene Ventures specializes in hard science ClimateTech companies globally, leveraging novel engineering and hard science to foster a global economy more closely aligned with Earth's ecology. They focus on climate tech as they believe the Earth is facing urgent environmental challenges. Their investment philosophy is grounded in the belief that technology has matured, there is talent dedicated to finding solutions, and capital from public and private sectors are ready to support these endeavors, especially at the pre and seed stages. They have observed a compression of value creation in these stages for science-based companies, facilitated by non-dilutive grant funding, accelerators, and alternative capital options post-Series A. Given these market conditions, they see an opportunity in tech that is de-risked and in climate-verticals that are undercapitalized. They assert that the macroeconomic conditions, re-industrialization focused on net-zero and resilient supply/value chains, along with significant investments from the US and Europe in climate initiatives, present a fourth industrial revolution ripe for investment. The team behind Anthropocene Ventures combines decades of experience in founding, scaling, and investing in startups, having been exclusively focused on climate for the last five years. They leverage their extensive network for sourcing, due diligence, and managing portfolio companies. Their Human Impact Team (HIT) enables them to make informed selections by pulling expertise from industry, government, academia, and capital markets. They aim to identify early-stage companies that will be investable by larger institutions within 2-4 years, with a greater focus on the multiple on invested capital (MOIC) rather than ownership percentage at this stage.
