Hi Casters. I think I have arrived.
Last April, USV joined the Venture Climate Alliance (VCA), a group of venture capital firms committed to achieving a rapid transition to net zero greenhouse gas emissions. We have worked with the VCA to develop a framework that startups in our portfolios may use to begin working toward that goal. We are acutely aware of the many challenges that face young companies. We, as a firm, are committed to reducing that burden wherever we can. That said, we believe it is important to do what we can as a firm to move towards net zero, and to help those portfolio companies that share that belief to develop a plan, identify easy wins, and start down that road. We hope the Venture Climate Alliance can be a clearinghouse for ideas and a resource for venture firms and their portfolio companies that are committed to putting their shoulder to the wheel to address the climate crisis.
