Neutreeno, a deep tech startup spun out of the University of Cambridge, has raised $5 million in seed funding to revolutionize how enterprises manage emissions and costs across their supply chains. The round was led by Regeneration.VC, with participation from Remarkable Ventures Climate Fund (RVC), Closed Loop Partners, Prequel Ventures, Scania Invest, and Beacon Venture Capital. Founded by Dr. Spencer Brennan, Neutreeno's proprietary digital system is designed to reduce the data burden on suppliers, allowing companies to map and optimize their product lines faster and with more precision. By automatically identifying opportunities to lower emissions and costs across thousands of suppliers, Neutreeno is already serving S&P 500 and FTSE 250 companies, as well as SMEs, across Asia, Europe, and North America. With the fresh funding, Neutreeno plans to expand operations and continue development of its cutting-edge platform. Could precise, automated supply chain mapping be the key to dramatically reducing global emissions while cutting costs?

Looks like Ÿnsect (you know, that massive French startup building bug factories) is in hot water. They need €130M in the next month just to keep their factory running. Yikes. We've seen a lot of money (especially public funds via BPI) dumped into these huge industrial moonshots lately. But hey, maybe we should've asked some basic questions first: Do people actually want this? Can it make money? Will it work at scale? Not dunking on innovation here - we need big bets! But this is definitely making everyone rethink how we back these mega-projects.
