Windfall Bio has developed the first-ever solution to capture and transform climate-harming methane emissions into organic fertilizer. This nature-based solution harnesses methane-eating microbes to transform methane from any source into valuable outputs. The company’s solution allows methane emitters across industries, such as agriculture, oil and gas, and waste management, to reduce their carbon footprint, as well as enables farmers to improve their profitability and environmental impact.

Thea Energy is building an economical and scalable fusion energy system utilizing arrays of mass-manufacturable magnets and dynamic software controls. Commercial fusion energy can uniquely provide a limitless source of zero-emission power for a sustainable future. Thea Energy is leveraging recent breakthroughs in computation and controls to reinvent the stellarator, a scientifically mature form of magnetic fusion technology. Thea Energy was founded in 2022 as a spin-out of the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory and Princeton University, where the stellarator was originally invented. Thea Energy is currently designing its first integrated fusion system, Eos, based on its planar coil stellarator architecture which will produce fusion neutrons at scale and in steady state.

Founded in 2017, Meati Foods is working to unlock a more delicious, nutritious, equitable, and sustainable food system for everyone. Eat Meati™, the debut product line from Meati Foods, features cutlets and steaks made from mushroom root, a whole-food protein cultivated with a modernized version of ancient and natural processes that have helped preserve Earths ecosystems for millennia. Eat Meati™ made its early retail debut in July 2022 after multiple months of record sellouts through its direct-to-doorstep online shop. A national omni-channel footprint is planned for late 2023.

Xcimer is a laser fusion company combining novel laser technology with proven science to achieve commercial deployment of fusion energy. Its approach to inertial fusion holds the best prospect for long-term economic viability. Founded in 2022 and based in Denver, Colorado, Xcimer is backed by the world’s leading climate tech investors and has been selected for funding by the U.S. Department of Energy. Its mission is to develop a source of unlimited, clean, safe and reliable energy to power the future. To learn more, visit https://xcimer.energy/.

A solution to livestock methane emissions. Rumin8 is commercializing a novel climate-friendly dietary supplement that radically reduces methane emissions in livestock and unlocks carbon credits for farmers.

Quaise develops millimeter wave drilling systems for deep geothermal heat access. Our technology is the only approach in the world with the potential to build geothermal wells at unprecedented depths and temperatures. By targeting depths up to 20 kilometers and temperatures up to 500 degrees Celsius, we will have the ability to build clean electric generation and heat distribution plants within a short distance of every major population and industrial center on the planet, at a fraction of the footprint of other renewables. And by scaling through the established supply base of the fossil fuel industry, we will be able to achieve the terawatt-level annual deployments that will be required to successfully decarbonize our global energy system.

Verdox is making scalable, cost-effective carbon capture and removal a reality. Founded in late 2019 by Dr. Brian Baynes, Prof. T. Alan Hatton, and Dr. Sahag Voskian, the company is commercializing its electroswing adsorption (ESA) platform technology, originally developed at MIT, to remove carbon dioxide from industrial emissions and the air with 70% energy savings versus conventional approaches.

Mitigating the worst impacts of climate change by developing the world’s most cost-effective DAC technology to permanently remove CO2 from the atmosphere. Our technology rapidly accelerates the natural processes that enable limestone to absorb carbon dioxide from the air from a timespan of years to days. In 2023, Heirloom established the first and only Direct Air Capture facility in North America that permanently captures CO2. Our customers are the world’s biggest buyers of carbon removal including Microsoft, JP Morgan, McKinsey, Stripe, Shopify and more.

Our all-natural protective layer slows down the spoiling process of fruit, veggies, meats, and seafood to help you enjoy fresher food for longer.

Climax is creating the future of food with its deep plant intelligence, a proprietary machine learning approach to creating foods by unlocking smarter paths from plants to products, creating a new generation of plant-based foods that will out-compete animal-based predecessors on taste, nutrition, environmental impact and cost.

Our mission is to reduce global human carbon emissions by 1%. To get there, weve created the tools needed to realize zero-waste production and circular reuse— a future where nothing becomes trash. The worlds first 3D weaving tech, transforming yarn into clothes in minutes.
