Nor'easter Ventures

What they do

Nor’easter Ventures is an early-stage investor backing exceptional entrepreneurs building enterprise solutions to combat the impact of climate change with deep tech. Nor'easter principals are serial entrepreneurs and operators with a twenty-five-year history of building companies together. We primarily source deals from the vibrant ecosystem in the greater Boston area where we have longstanding and deep ties into academic laboratories and incubators. MIT and its alumni network is a prime source of startup opportunities for Nor'easter. We appreciate that the journey from lab to market is non-linear and warrants a specialized team. Our strategy is to engage by investing time and capital with a select set of high-potential, high-conviction startups where we believe we can accelerate growth with first-hand operating experience, enterprise relationships and capital. Our primary investment objective is to invest in companies working to improve the sustainability of populations and the planet in light of the emerging climate crisis.
