Compound
Compound builds companies at the intersection of infrastructure software and climate. We don't invest in startups — we co-found them.
Our model: identify a structural gap in the energy, logistics, or materials supply chain, recruit a founding team from our network, fund the first 18 months, and provide engineering support from our in-house build team. Three of our six companies have raised Series A.
