Organization

Organization Description: 

RockPort Capital Partners is a leading venture capital firm partnering with clean tech entrepreneurs around the world to build innovative companies and bring disruptive technologies and products to the 21st century. RockPort’s investment approach is distinguished by collaboration with management teams to foster growth and create value. Combining domain expertise with policy and international experience, RockPort has a proven track record of leveraging its insights and networks to foster growth and create value.

Description of Renewable Energy Finance Business: 

RockPort invests in a set of increasingly interrelated industries: Energy and Power, Advanced Materials, and Process and Prevention sectors. Many of the most interesting opportunities we see are best described by a convergence of two or more of these sectors: a material may enhance a process or improve energy efficiency; or a new process may lower a material input which increases efficiency and decreases energy usage. While such cross fertilization of disciplines is where many of the most exciting opportunities have emerged, we evaluate each opportunity on a stand-alone economic basis.
