In the midst of a climate and biodiversity crisis, investing in impactful companies is vital for global sustainable development. Irish businesses, leveraging a technology ecosystem, can contribute to carbon reduction. Resolve Ventures aims to play a crucial role by cultivating and scaling sustainability startups, ensuring rapid decarbonisation in line with legally binding targets. Resolve Ventures will assess and develop a portfolio of nature-positive, equitable solutions aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
David Scanlon, Partner, Resolve Ventures: ''We are delighted with the significant amount of funding secured to date. At Resolve Ventures, we believe in investing in our future and doing our part in delivering the impact momentum necessary to attain the targets prescribed by the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Through this fund, we hope to aid innovative tech solutions that will power the decarbonisation of our food, energy, transport, and consumption systems. This fund isn’t just beneficial for the environment we all live in, but it makes strong economic sense: governments, utilities, and multinational corporations will be required to invest and spend heavily on sustainability in the coming years in alignment with both the National Development Plan and Climate Action Plan. We are building a portfolio of startups to capitalise on this. Our mission is to cultivate our Venture Ecosystem, seizing this market opportunity, while making a meaningful impact on carbon reduction and the preservation of our planet for future generations,” adds Scanlon.
