We invest in Seed and Series A startups building solutions across energy tech, infrastructure tech, and Industry 4.0.
Infleqtion commercializes quantum sensing and timing hardware to deliver ultra-precise navigation and synchronization for critical infrastructure.
Infleqtion solutions are unjammable and very useful for critical uses like air, underwater and underground navigation, defense, etc. Kristina agreed to join the board to help the company prepare for an IPO. We like the practical use of Quantum technology to deliver practical, robust and valuable tools.
Aro Homes is delivering on the long-standing promise of factory-built single-family housing at scale. They utilize a precision-engineered building system to radically accelerate construction timelines while eliminating residential carbon footprints.
The construction industry is a laggard in productivity and Aro Homes has cracked the code of repeatable, efficient and scalable construction.
Eagle Creek modernizes and aggregates small-scale hydropower assets to maximize grid stability and carbon-free baseload energy production.
Catalyzer partners, Kristina and Neal, built this company by integrating portfolios of small hydropower assets into what became the largest pure-play independent hydropower platform in the United States. Apollo Management Company acquired the platform, and our partners worked closely with them on the value creation plan that underpinned Apollo’s investment.
Catalyzer invested alongside Apollo on a no-fee, no-carry basis. The downside risk is mitigated by the nature of the asset: an operating platform with strong, stable cash flows.
Non-linear optimization software for increasing the capacity, reliability and flexibility of existing power plants. The technology has been deployed at hydropower plants producing up to 15% more energy per unit of water (same water, more energy).
Catalyzer co-created the company with the founder, turning his research into a product and a company. Catalyzer secured Axolotis' initial customers by using our network and going on sales calls with the founder. We are also helping build the team as they scale.
Blaze Energy Technologies develops a compact, low-cost catalytic reformer that lets existing diesel-powered cargo ships run on alternative fuels (ammonia, hydrogen, methanol, and LNG) without replacing the engine. Its fuel-agnostic retrofit solution future-proofs maritime assets facing regulatory pressure and stranded-asset risk.
Our track record speakers for itself. Our founders bring firsthand experience from 70+ investments made prior to launching Catalyzer. A selection of those companies are featured below:
