We invest in nature's chemistry to disrupt how
people and companies consume products.
Smiles expected, not guaranteed.
The largest industries on planet earth are all trying to find sustainable inputs.
$6T+ Chemical Industry
$14T+ Manufacturing Industry
$14T+ Agriculture Industry
$12T+ Construction & Infrastructure Industry
$8T+ Automotive & Transportation Industry
$2.5T+ Textiles & Apparel Industry
Without venture funding to scale nature's chemistry, these sectors will continue to be reliant on commodity materials that require extraction and pollution.
Our goal is to help society transition from a model of extraction, into a model of regeneration.

Let us help you invest in biosolutions!
