🌍 Celebrating 3 Years of Innovation at R3i Capital, and the second program launch of Planet43 - Planet43 Hydro! 🌍


Today marks a significant milestone at R3i Capital as we celebrate our 3rd anniversary! 🎉 Over the past three years, we have been at the forefront of driving sustainable and impactful change through our investments and many programs to accelerate underwriting into the world's most disruptive Applied AI or Frontier tech companies. Our journey has been extraordinary, filled with groundbreaking innovations and inspiring collaborations from room-temperature powered quantum computing to long-duration solar thermal renewables, oncological prognostics, and brain health.

The launch of Planet43 Hydro with our partners PureTerra Ventures Striders Corporation and Hatcher+, Microsoft and NVIDIA is the ideal milestone in our journey - celebrating the disruptors that inspire possible every day in climate, healthcare, and water.

Our Vision for the Future: R3i Capital's Strategic Roadmap

International Expansion

In a landscape marked by economic upheaval, bank runs, and the erosion of women's rights, R3i Capital has navigated the nuclear winter of venture capital with resilience. As we enter our fourth year, we are committed to broadening our global presence. Our strategy involves partnering with 100 top-tier universities across 21 countries through our Planet43 sourcing and investment programs. These partnerships will drive innovation, foster sustainable sourcing and IP growth, and create new markets, ensuring that our influence extends globally.

Hyperlocal Franchises

Our R3i Future Fund and R3i Open Funds will be transformed into hyperlocal franchises. This model closely connects us to each community's unique needs and opportunities. By embedding ourselves locally, we can better support climate adaptation initiatives and promote value-based care, ensuring that our impact is both global and deeply personal.

Outcomes

Climate Adaptation: We are steadfast in our commitment to supporting high-performance projects and startups that offer tangible, innovative solutions to climate change. By focusing on investments and venture building in tech that drives mitigation and adaptation strategies, we will calculate a billion GHG emissions reduced by 2043—our contribution to securing a sustainable future for all.
