We're thrilled to announce the close of our seed funding round at $12m (CHF 10.5m) - the #largest European seed round in #ClimateFinance in 2023! Grateful to our investors Heartcore Capital , Vorwerk Ventures, HCS Capital and Revent and many prominent angels, including Axel Theis and Christof Mascher, for believing in our mission to become the first company to underwrite the carbon credit markets, with carbon credits - not cash! "(Buyers of carbon credits) are in the uncomfortable position that right now there's no guarantee that the offsets they buy in advance are actually going to materialise and... in the number that they're expecting and reporting on in their financial disclosures. Insurance is basically the missing piece." CarbonPool's Chief Operating Officer and co-founder, Nandini Wilcke We work with partners looking to de-risk their carbon investments and accelerate the transition to net zero. Co-founders Coenraad Vrolijk (CEO), Nandini Wilcke (COO) and Frederic Olbert (CFO) and the team of risk and underwriting experts and climate scientists at CarbonPool team have already built world class risk models for carbon markets and we're looking forward to doing our part to help the planet reach net zero.
