Our Team

The EcoElectron Ventures team consists of seasoned energy investors and entrepreneurs who have successfully started and exited from early stage enterprises. Key principals have extensive relationships with a variety of investor groups focused on emerging energy technologies, providing the capability to secure the follow-on funding required to bring a concept to market.

There are no fees for EcoElectron’s services. On the contrary, you will receive cash investment and active partners in your business.

In return for our direct involvement, we expect to receive founder investment returns and to have more control over investment dollars compared to passive investors.
