 August 5, 2023  What happens when you combine artificial intelligence with carbon removal? Startups in the sector-mix getting funded.  In a sign of how much the market tides have shifted, the top investor leading rounds for new unicorn startups so far this year is not who you think, and not that one either. Instead, it's a relatively small, under-the-radar investor based in Berlin.  There were lots of big rounds this week as August roared in after a kind of sleepy July.  A handful of climate-focused investors dominate the sustainability sector ranks for deal count and investment size in recent quarters, per Crunchbase data.  India, South Korea, Singapore and Israel all saw significant drops in venture funding when comparing Q2 of this year to the same time last year, while China's venture market seems to have steadied.  With the exception of accelerators, no firm hit double-digit deals in the U.S. last month. We look at some of July's investors by the numbers. Crunchbase, Inc. |
