Year 3 Cohort
Capro-X deploys a biorefining platform that upcycles organic waste to fatty-acid biochemicals that can be used in a wide range of applications.
Capture6 removes carbon from the atmosphere while producing clean water and other industrial products from seawater or other saltwater inputs.
Carbon To Stone develops a carbon mineralization technology coupled with high-value minerals and metals recovery.
Dioxycle builds an electrolysis platform to convert carbon emissions into chemicals and fuel building blocks.
enaDyne develops non-thermal plasma catalysis reactors to convert CO₂ into chemicals and fuels.
Global Algae Innovations grows algae that capture CO₂ from the atmosphere to produce protein and oil for food and industrial use.
Mitico (formerly C-Quester) delivers a solution for carbon capture using dry granular metal carbonate (GMC) purification technology with integrated measurement, reporting, and verification.

RenewCO₂ is developing an electrochemical process to convert CO₂ into fuels and chemicals, such as sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) or propylene glycol.
Seabound builds carbon-capture equipment for new and existing ships.
Secant Fuel develops a one-step electrocatalytic process that converts flue gas into syngas.

“Phenomenally run program, which was perfectly aligned with the challenges we were facing in our business. C2V is an amazing platform for carbontech startups to position themselves for growth, learn from fellow startups and partner with established CLC Members.”
— Air Company, Year 1 Cohort
“We entered the C2V program at a critical moment when meeting industrial actors was key for our growth. Through the program we were able to forge invaluable partnerships in the carbontech sector, whilst receiving key guidance on the industry as a whole. Our journey with C2V has been transformative, opening the door for meaningful collaborations that are essential for our growth and impact in the industry.”
— Dioxycle, Year 3 Cohort
“The C2V program is skillfully tailored to the real-world, unique needs of climatetech startups. We joined at a pivotal moment in our growth, and it pushed us to ask the tough, non-obvious questions—while giving us direct access to the industry leaders who could help us answer them.”
— Seabound, Year 4 Cohort
“The C2V program was exceptionally well run and the program content was outstanding. The relationships we developed with the C2V leadership team, corporate partners, and fellow cohort members will last well beyond the final showcase and continue to be a very valuable asset in our company's journey.”
