This article by Forbes encapsulates the vision and drive of Shally Shanker and what we as a team at AiiM Partners are driving to solve. We focus on the untapped opportunities where capital remains scarce, the ‘missing middle’, the unclaimed territory between the early seed funds and the larger, institutional funds investing at later stages. As Shally highlights, "We invest in companies that are building products that solve a critical climate problem and are scaling through rapid commercial traction. Solving meaningful climate issues often requires deep or hard tech solutions. It has not been easy for such companies to raise capital recently as most climate investors prefer ‘asset-lite’ solutions to climate, particularly those centered around software. Climate is not only a software problem".

"Is the funding landscape continuing to improve for climate tech businesses?" This week, it certainly seems so with big announcements 🔥 ➡ neustark a Swiss-based carbon removal developer announced $69 million as part of a growth funding round yesterday 💪 ➡ Climate X a London-based climate risk data company announced a $18 million Series A funding result as well 🎉 ➡ And last week CuspAI, a Cambridge and Amsterdam based search engine for materials secured $30 million in a seed round 🙌 Certainly something to celebrate IMO 👏 #startups #climatetech #funding #investment #growth #announcements

Greetings Everyone! Continuing my Climate Ninja journey, I recently had the privilege of participating in an enlightening masterclass led by Himanshu Sharma,a dynamic Climate Tech Investor and an investment associate at Theia Ventures, as part of this program initiated by The Sustainability Mafia .

It was enlightening to see how these financial mechanisms are not just about capital but about fostering a community that’s ready to challenge the norm and lead us into a greener future. The session was a collective deep dive into how seed-stage investments can be a catalyst for change. Theia Ventures dedication to supporting transformative ideas at the seed stage is creating a ripple effect, empowering visionary entrepreneurs to make a tangible impact on sustainability and climate technology.
