Extantia Capital

Extantia Capital is a Berlin-based seed and Series A venture capital firm focused exclusively on deep technology climate solutions, backing founders developing breakthrough scientific and engineering approaches to decarbonize the global economy across energy, food systems, materials, and industrial processes. The firm was founded with the conviction that the most consequential and defensible climate solutions require genuine scientific and technical breakthroughs rather than incremental improvements, and that the capital gap for such companies at seed stage is larger and more structurally significant than for software-driven climate businesses. Extantia invests with initial checks from $1 million to $5 million and focuses on companies where the founding team has world-class technical depth in chemistry, biology, physics, or engineering, and is applying that expertise to problems at the intersection of commercial viability and genuine climate impact. Portfolio companies include Ineratec, the German company developing modular chemical plants for sustainable fuel production from captured CO2 and green hydrogen; Planted, the Swiss company producing whole-cut plant-based meat products using proprietary high-moisture extrusion technology; Reverion, the company developing biogas-to-energy conversion technology using reversible fuel cells; and Traceless, the Hamburg-based company developing compostable bioplastic alternatives from agricultural residues. Beyond its original investments, the portfolio includes additional deep technology climate companies.
