“Over-dependence on foreign oil, a new-found recognition in the U.S. (the rest of the world has known for a long time) of the importance of addressing global climate change, and an appreciation for the possibility of investments in renewable energy are helping to turn the U.S. and global economy around.  Renewable [clean] energy is no longer in the dark but rather front and center in the world of entrepreneurship.”

The need for start-up and early stage Capital.

In spite of the rapidly growing interest by the financial community, most of the emerging nascent clean energy businesses will not attract funding, and hence widespread deployment of these technologies will be slowed unless the risks to private sector investors are further reduced. Private financing brings with it special needs that are not often fully understood by entrepreneurs with good technologies. In particular, these small businesses based on clean energy technologies most often need to develop a strong market focus and carry out a number of other key tasks including: evolving their management and leadership teams; developing or improving their business plans; maturing their technology & products & validating their intended markets; and articulating their total value propositions more effectively. Typically though, there is a dearth of resources available to help promising clean energy companies effectively transition to available private sector financing.

EnTech understands how to reduce the risks involved, and has the capabilities of addressing critical development and funding issues. At EnTech, we work primarily with start-ups and early-stage companies with exceptional teams and disruptive technologies focused on large markets within the clean energy technology industries. We provide capital, as well as technical, financial and industry resources focused on success.

EnTech invests in and supports compelling technologies and entrepreneurs that address the changing demands of the global energy industry. Our unique combination of experienced business development specialists, venture investment professionals, global strategic partners and specialized industry knowledge, enable EnTech to identify, finance and develop highly profitable and innovative growth businesses in the clean energy sector and to help grow and strengthen the energy leaders of tomorrow.
