Greenspark Raises £1 Million for Climate-Tech Innovation
On February 1, 2023, Greenspark, a pioneering climate-tech start-up based in London, announced a significant milestone in its journey towards revolutionizing environmental action in the business sector. The company successfully raised £1 million in seed funding, marking a critical step forward in its mission to help organizations seamlessly integrate environmental impact into their everyday operations. This investment round was led by Fuel Ventures, which was joined by a consortium of notable investors including Pitchdrive, 1818 Venture Capital, Zone2Boost, Great Stuff Ventures, QC-Ventures, and Boost Fund, along with existing backers such as Anthemis, BBVA, and Perivoli Innovations.
Greenspark is dedicated to empowering businesses by providing practical and innovative online tools aimed at fostering environmental and social change.
In a world where the demand for meaningful climate action is growing stronger among both consumers and employees, Greenspark offers solutions that not only make a positive impact but also enhance vital business outcomes such as customer engagement, product sales, and overall brand loyalty. “At Greenspark, we’re on a mission to tackle some of the greatest issues facing our planet right now, like climate change, deforestation, and plastic pollution,” stated Lenny Leemann, co-Founder and CEO of Greenspark. He emphasized the need to prove the economic viability of sustainability initiatives, highlighting their dual benefits of driving positive change and improving business metrics.
The advantages of Greenspark's model are clearly illustrated by their track record. To date, the company has facilitated the planting of over 800,000 trees and has successfully prevented more than 1.3 million plastic bottles from entering the ocean, all while becoming an integral part of the sustainability strategies for over 300 companies. As they move forward, Greenspark is set to launch its Climate API and introduce new impact types along with omnichannel integrations. According to Wim Derkinderen, the Managing Partner at Pitchdrive, "Greenspark makes positive impact more attractive for businesses, which is a very hard nut to crack.” The success of Greenspark reflects a growing recognition that acting for the planet is not only essential but can also translate into substantial business benefits.
