The Climate Scout Fund combines the global networks of Climate Capital, Earthshot Ventures, and Elemental Excelerator to execute a climate-focused scout fund model. The program recruits scouts embedded in powerful early-stage networks (such as Y Combinator, Google X, and other accelerators) and empowers them with capital and community to invest in pre-seed climate companies.

The fund addresses the climate tech investment gap by leveraging scouts' existing networks and providing them with deployment capital to identify and invest in exceptional pre-seed climate innovations.
