ReKaivery
ReKaivery
ReKaivery is creating carbon-neutral food hubs inside renovated, solar powered shipping containers. The food hubs bring the benefits of farmers markets' with the convenience of a grocery store. ReKaivery's kickstarter was a smashing success. 137 backers and $21,217 raised in 38 days. That money will allow them to build their first food hub in Fort Collins. Our team was impressed with their well-researched, community-informed, systems approach to supporting local food systems. Sign up for their newsletter to stay involved.

Latimer Controls
Latimer Controls
Latimer Controls is a software-based solution that gives large solar power producers the control ability to ramp up and down their power production while mitigating the unpredictability of changing cloud coverage. Having the ability to mimic coal and natural gas plants by ramping reliable generation on command, with or without battery storage technology, is the one of the final stages of developing a 100% renewable power grid. This will result in clean electricity from our power grid and a huge reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

ClimateRaise
ClimateRaise
This group of women entrepreneurs and investors finds and promotes great women-led climate startups. Inspiration for ClimateRaise came when investors told them that they “couldn’t find any women entrepreneurs” and the ClimateRaise co-founders immediately came back with an initial list of 80 women. That idea turned into the ClimateRaise newsletter where they provide an ongoing list of vetted women-led companies open to investment opportunities. Now they work to curate their list of women entrepreneurs, promote them, and also to provide introductions that can bring these startups to life.
