“Earthshot has one of the most experienced and scientifically credentialled teams in the industry, and has a proven track record with many of the largest companies in the world. We analyzed over 200 climate tech companies before making this investment,” shared Derek Chau, partner at Acorn Pacific.
Judy Li at Earth Foundry is similarly excited about Earthshot’s potential: “We’ve seen dozens of software companies building digital MRV tools or carbon marketplaces, but Earthshot fundamentally unlocks this market unlike any other company we evaluated. It’s exciting to see a company with such deep ecological values and scientific integrity also reach this level of commercial traction so early.”
