Water scarcity: By 2030, there will be a 40% gap between demand for water and existing accessible, reliable, and sustainable supply.
Construction materials: Concrete and steel production make up c.15% of global CO2 emissions. These are (literally) the building blocks of cities, and continued urbanisation will drive further growth in this figure.
Bioreactor capacity: 60% of the physical inputs to the global economy could, in principal, be produced biologically. By 2040-2050, the bioeconomy has the potential to reduce annual GHG emissions by 7-9% vs. 2018 levels. But, there is a severe global bioreactor capacity shortage.
Home decarbonisation: Residential buildings account for 20% of energy related emissions globally. Solutions exist but decarbonising residential heating and cooling is a difficult task due to the scale, complexity, and cost of the challenge.

Nick de la Forge @ Planet A Ventures

Supercritical geothermal energy: Available everywhere, cheap, as a renewable base-load energy source.
Space solar: It might be worth a shot to have a base load continuous renewable energy if geothermal does not work.
Next-gen water recuperation
Low-cost, low-tech cooling

Isabella Fandrych @ Nucleus Capital

Water: With increasing temperatures, rising populations, and heightened demand for water supply for H2 production, the industry will need to innovate its approach to using water. Therefore, I am particularly excited about water treatment, recovery, and quality assurance approaches.
Bio-based mineral extraction and recovery: Companies harnessing the power of biology to secure the supply of critical minerals for the energy transition such as Lithium.
Fertilisers: With global food demand raising, we will need more sustainable solutions for producing fertilisers including new approaches to fixed nitrogen and ammonia.

Yair Reem @ Extantia

Grid: We need to build tomorrow's grid today - both by making the most of existing poles and wires, and by thinking smart about how to build better, NIMBY-proof new infrastructure.
Minerals: Minerals are essential ingredients in the key components of today's rapidly growing clean energy technologies. We are actively exploring ways to establish secure supply chains for critical minerals in Europe, which are currently lacking despite the surge in demand driven by the energy transition.
Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR): Investments in CDR technologies are surging due to their critical role in combating the climate crisis by actively removing CO2 from the atmosphere and addressing the urgent need to reduce global carbon emissions.

Christian Tang Jespersen @ Acme Capital and Kost Capital and Bodil Sidén @ Kost Capital

Rethinking the bioreactor ecosystem: To support the upcoming capacity demands.
Gut health: Reducing the amount of processing with people’s gut in mind through smart and natural ingredients
Enablers: Such as AI powered software or smart packaging
Ingredient innovation: Any and all ingredients with high defensibility (e.g. within fats and oils)

Christian Guba @ FoodLabs

Blue economy 2.0: Oceans offer a vast frontier of untapped opportunities, particularly for carbon sequestration, biomaterials, and bioenergy. Innovations could include deep-sea algae cultivation for biofuel and nutraceuticals, as well as processes to extract excess CO2 from seawater using calcium, potentially mitigating ocean acidification.
Insuretech x climate: Insurances in the carbon-dioxide removal (CDR) space with a focus on nature-based solutions such as deforestation or afforestation. For example, in-kind insurance, i.e. offering new carbon credits in the event of a shortfall, might provide protection against price fluctuations.
Synbio for nutrient cycling: Imagine microbes engineered to turn food waste into essential nutrients. These could then be returned to the soil or converted into animal feed, possibly closing the nutrient loop, reducing waste, and enhancing food security.

Sonalie Figueiras @ Green Queen, Source Green and Angel Investor

Making agricultural inputs petrochemical free: This is a hard one because yields are under pressure everywhere due to food supply disruptions (ironically due to climate change related extreme weather), and that means more fossil fuel-based inputs.
Green air conditioning: Experts say we will go from 1 billion units to 4 billion units over the next decades due to global heating. The energy requirements alone will kill any GHG lowering targets. We need more focus on how to find greener cooling solutions.
Behavourial change solutions around reducing meat consumption: It's not easy to get humans to eat less meat but we have to - almost no funding has been allocated towards shift culture, changing behaviours and creating a new food paradigm of what eating in a climate crisis means - we need more investment and ideation here.

Namratha Kothapalli @ Speedinvest

Insetting and emission reduction across supply chains: Without drastically reducing emissions, carbon dioxide removal (of all historic and residual emissions) will be almost useless.
Adaptation and resilience solutions across food value chains: Because food systems are (both) massively impacted by climate change (and a significant contributor to climate change), it is imperative that we work towards climate adaptation strategies for food security.
Solutions enabling water resilience: Having water at the right place, at the right time, at the right quality and quantity is an increasingly critical problem to tackle as we feel the effects of the planet warming manifest in water change.

Lindsey Higgins @ Pale blue dot

We need solutions in the water space because we can’t survive without it, and solving many of these problems is also essential to addressing climate change.

Industrial water use: In Europe, we use more water for industry than for agriculture. There are many solutions out there focused on water conservation in crop irrigation, but we also need to find ways to reduce or, at the very least, incorporate circular practices into industrial water use.
Wastewater valorization: From manufacturing, mining, desalination, and even municipal sources has been viewed as nothing more than a problem, but in many cases is a liquid gold full of valuable materials for extraction. Novel and energy-efficient ways to obtain those resources are needed.
Low-emission water management systems: Energy consumption in the water sector is set to double by 2030; every drop of water lost means energy wasted.

Beatriz Franco @ Vita Vera Ventures

As with everything else, AI is also powering food: I expect to see more companies using AI and machine learning for product discovery allowing for more accurate predictions, less physical testing and faster turnaround time.
Advanced materials: Many new products are showing evidence that performance doesn’t need to be compromised when creating sustainable materials. It will be interesting to see new adoption by established companies, especially in packaging.
Deforestation-free: Products and companies who are ready to commercialise good quality alternatives will have a chance of gaining traction faster than before due to the additional push coming from European legislation.

Shravan Shah @ Synthesis Capital

Commercially robust strains / cell lines: SynBio needs to transition from a largely vertically-integrated industry to a horizontal one. We think a core enabler of this transition will be platforms that can quickly and accurately identify commercially viable hosts, and do so across a broad range of cell types and growth conditions. Such technologies will help reduce, by orders of magnitude, the cost of bringing SynBio products to market, helping companies navigate the Valley of Death through to commercialisation.
Circular production systems: Feeding a growing population will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, within planetary boundaries. We think the commercial upside of production systems that implement circularity principles (for instance - using a waste stream as feedstock in a fermentation process), will become considerably more attractive as the price and supply of traditional inputs become more volatile over time.
Upgrading the “ingredient-stack” of alternative protein products: Most alt-protein products on the market today use a similar set of readily available ingredients that were never optimised for the meat- or dairy-analogue use case. There is tremendous potential for novel ingredients to reduce cost, improve nutrition, minimise unnecessary processing and deliver on taste. In addition to innovative approaches to texturisation, these novel inputs will help usher in a wave of new end-products that better address consumer needs and wants.

Laura Turner @ Agronomics

Refiguring fermentation: Levers to reduce unit economics and capex inclusive of AI/ML for process optimisation.
Harnessing plants and microbes: Producing high value items has historically been challenging or unsustainable to make (more niche products e.g. nutraceuticals).
Cell line providers via licensing for cultivated meat and seafood with the best traits – identifying with high throughput systems.
Biomanufacturing: Widening the set of microbes available as workhorses for biomanufacturing.

Jonas von den Driesch @ Shift Invest

Food waste remains a tremendous challenge and at the same time an opportunity, impact-wise and financially. The food waste challenge comes from a complex value chain and waste occurring at almost all steps.
Energy transition: New solutions to manage electric grids are needed and the opportunity will only increase with the growing electrification of our society.
Sustainable mobility: We are looking for founders working on sustainable aviation and namely enabling technologies like green travel incentive platforms or route optimisation software.
Green industries: The chemical sector will be increasingly decoupled from fossil fuels and technologies to facilitate that transition are needed.

Alison Imbert @ Partech Partners

Energy-efficient materials: Consuming fewer resources, such as water or petrol, with applications in construction, packaging, and chemistry.
Grid and infrastructure optimisation: Aimed at incorporating a higher proportion of renewable energy in the energy mix, mitigating energy spikes, and facilitating the transition towards increased electrification of transportation and industry.

Frank Cordesmeyer @ Good Seed Ventures

Clean label foods: Tasty products made via solid state fermentation, liquid state fermentation, precision fermentation, biomass fermentation and cultivation of cells will dominate supermarket shelves soon. Solutions that enable the production of delicious clean label products, which are better for the planet and the consumer, at price parity will be key.
Enhanced rock weathering: To sequester significant amounts of carbon, while gradually reducing the need for fertilisers.
Regenerative agriculture practices: Repairing soil health and enabling farmers to achieve higher yields.

Steve Molino @ Clear Current Capital

Continued solutions in biomass fermentation: The products have a strong nutritional profile, low levels of processing, and legitimate scalability potential. The players in this space are doing great things, but there’s a lot of potential/room for growth.
Cost reduction enabling tech for synbio: From precision fermentation to cultivated, unit economics are simply not where they need to be. Driving down major costs in both upstream and downstream processing should be the focus, so B2B plays in this area are necessities. Examples could be data collection and process optimization software/hardware plays to reduce costs or strain discovery and optimization plays to improve yields/titers.
Infrastructure solutions: Primarily around financing for FOAK facilities in synbio.

Alexandre Bastos @ Givaudan

De-carbonisation: There are a set of different technologies playing in the space of turning CO2 into materials which would go back to a specific industry value chain. This is probably the number 1 issue our society is facing and we definitely need to remove CO2 while clean energy technologies are scaling.
Fermentation: The ability to create alternative materials which are more sustainable and reliable by upcycling industrial and consumer food side streams into valorised products. There is a need of a platform technology which can tackle this at global scale, multi-material, cross-industry. We see many "one of's", but no platform.

Puja Balachader @ Carbon13

Integrated adaptation and mitigation: Solutions that concurrently address climate resilience and carbon reduction offer dual value. Urban green infrastructure, for instance, provides a carbon sequestration avenue while mitigating the urban heat island effect. It's an embodiment of efficient capital allocation, tackling two critical challenges with a single solution.
Low/no carbon air conditioning: In a warming world, the demand trajectory for cooling solutions is evident. Yet, the prevailing air conditioning technologies are energy-intensive and employ high-GWP refrigerants. The investment thesis here is clear: Innovate in cooling, align with decarbonization goals, and tap into a burgeoning market.
Decarbonising industrial heat: The industrial sector's thermal energy demand, predominantly sourced from fossil fuels, represents a significant carbon footprint. Transitioning to cleaner heat generation methods, such as solar thermal or electric-based solutions, has both an environmental imperative and a potential market disruption angle.

Roberta Franchi @ Counteract VC

Ocean MRV solutions in the carbon removal space: Oceans are vital for absorbing carbon dioxide, and have the potential to remove more than 10Gt/year of CO2. Accurate measurement, reporting and verification solutions will be crucial in delivering and scaling up ocean-based Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) strategies.
Carbon negative construction materials: The construction industry is a major emitter of carbon dioxide, with emissions from building operations reaching an all time high of 10Gt of CO2 in 2022. Carbon-negative materials, aimed at removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during their entire life cycle, will help to offset these emissions, contributing to environmental sustainability and reducing the industry's substantial carbon footprint.
Precision fermentation for animal-free high-quality proteins: It's projected that by 2050, the world's population will require 70% more protein than what is currently available through traditional animal agriculture. Precision fermentation could offer an efficient and sustainable method for producing high-quality proteins without the need for extensive land use, making it a crucial technology to meet protein needs while minimizing environmental impact.
Carbon-Capturing Enzymes: Carbon-capturing enzymes present a potential solution for capturing and utilizing carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse gas, which can aid in reducing atmospheric CO2 levels and mitigating global warming. These have the potential to accelerate CO2 removal across a range of different carbon removal technologies, enhancing their efficiency.
