🚀 42 Startups Reinventing Industries

According to SOSV, DCVC, Pangaea Ventures, Voyager Ventures, Streetlife Ventures, Pachamama Ventures, Atlantic Labs, Buoyant Ventures, Planet A Ventures and more

Deeptech startups are rewriting the rules of industry.

Founders aren’t just cutting emissions, they are building system-level upgrades that transform how industries operate worldwide.

It’s about more than decarbonizing; it’s about re-engineering the very systems that power our global economy with novel, science-based solutions.

As a first step to unravelling which startups are the ‘ones to watch’, we asked 14 VCs which companies are poised to upend their industry, and hold the potential to reshape entire supply chains, reduce dependency on fossil fuels, and unlock more resilient and sustainable infrastructure. Here’s what they told us.

Next up: Hundreds of Founders, Investors and Operators will join us at the HackSummit on 10-11th December to unlock abundance in energy, supply chains and climate adaptation. And if you’re ready to demo your solution and it’s the right time to get on every investor’s radar, head this way.

In this week’s edition:
