We're excited to share that we've made an investment in Alithic alongside Counteract and Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF). We had been searching for a stand-out Direct Air Capture company for a while, but nothing quite fit the bill until we found Alithic with its startling energetics. Its single-step process both captures CO₂ from the air and converts CO₂ into a cement replacement product -- meaning it confronts climate change on two vital fronts. But don’t just take our word for it. Frontier recently selected Alithic as part of their latest carbon removal pre-purchase. Read more on the Kiko website: https://lnkd.in/eN7g9Wu3

Liftoff for OXCCU - opening the world's first single step SAF (sustainable aviation fuel) demonstration plant! Kudos to the team for making this happen. OXCCU TECH LTD Andrew Symes
Today marks an exciting milestone for OXCCU! We’re proud to announce the opening of our OX1 plant at Oxford Airport, a world-first demonstration plant converting CO2 and green hydrogen directly to jet fuel range hydrocarbons in a unique single-step process. OX1 showcases British innovation at its best, developed through a decade of research at the University of Oxford and supported by both significant industry and government investment. This plant will set the stage for our larger OX2 plant at Saltend, helping us deliver cost-effective, scalable PtL SAF. We look forward to showing media and investors around over the coming days. Thanks to BusinessGreen for covering our news - https://lnkd.in/eQmmbFBp #SAF #PtL #Innovation #ClimateTech #OX1Plant

Congrats to portfolio company Vytal | The reuse system for its fundraise, bringing long-standing cleantech specialist Emerald Technology Ventures on board! Vytal is currently supplying the #Euro24 fanzones in Germany, making it already an event to remember (at least for us #reuse geeks here at Kiko Ventures 😂)!

Congrats to our portfolio company Vytal | The reuse system for scoring goals on multiple levels! 💪 Supplying the best-known mega events in Germany, the #EURO24 fanzones, with its digital reuse system 💪 Winning investment from the longest-standing cleantech fund in Europe, Emerald Technology Ventures When we invested in 2022 we felt that the solution to packing waste would not be up-, down-, or re-cycling, nor bio-sourced or -degradable materials... but rather a system that uses digitally-enabled logistics to keep packaging containers circulating forever... With Vytal we found early believers in that vision and now the #reuse_revolution is gathering momentum! Congrats to the rockstar Vytal team Dr. Tim Breker, Josephine Kreische and Fabian Barthel and to fellow investors Emerald Technology Ventures, VENTIS CAPITAL, Grazia Equity, Rubio Impact Ventures, Chi Impact Capital

Die Finanzierung wird von Emerald Technology Ventures und deren Sustainable Packaging Innovation Fund angeführt, mit Beteiligung von VENTIS CAPITAL sowie unseren geschätzten bestehenden Investoren Grazia Equity, Kiko Ventures, Rubio Impact Ventures und Chi Impact Capital. Vielen Dank für das Vertrauen und die Unterstützung unserer Vision, die Kreislaufwirtschaft neu zu gestalten. 🌍💚 Doch damit nicht genug: Vytal ist im Fußballfieber! Unser Team feiert in den Fanzones in Köln, Stuttgart und Berlin und feuert fleißig an. 🏆 ⚽️ Diesen Samstag wird es spannend: Bis zu 70.000 Fußballfans werden auf dem riesigen 24.000 Quadratmeter großen Kunstrasenfeld der Fanzone vor dem Brandenburger Tor in Berlin mitfiebern.
