What founders get from Kapinort.
People who know the sector
Each investor leads on the sector they know best, so you talk to someone who understands your unit economics from the first call.
Patient capital
Hardware and energy take longer to build than apps. We plan for that and stay with founders through the slow parts.
Introductions that matter
Customers, suppliers, co-investors and hires across the clean energy value chain, when you need them.
Which sectors do you invest in?
Technology, solar and electric mobility, along with the software and hardware that connect them, such as energy management, storage, charging and battery analytics.
What stage do you invest at?
We invest early, from pre-seed to Series A, when a hands-on partner makes the biggest difference.
Do I need a warm introduction?
No. Apply online through our founder application. An introduction is welcome but never required.
What should I send?
A few lines on the problem, your solution, your team and your traction so far, plus a link to your deck if you have one.
Do you invest in hardware companies?
Yes. Many of the best businesses in energy and mobility combine hardware with software, and we are comfortable with longer build cycles.
