PT1 – Transformative real asset technologies

PT1 is a fully independent venture capital firm that focuses on pre-seed & seed investments in transformative real asset technologies. Real assets (real estate, infrastructure and energy) are undergoing a profound transformation caused by the increasing scarcity of natural resources, carbon budgets, square metres and skilled labour. PT1 invests in #Futurebuilders, startups benefitting from these megatrends by serving the high economic, social and political demand through scalable solutions.

Using its proprietary AI-enabled deal flow database, PT1 finds, funds and fosters real asset innovations. PT1 consists of a pan-European, entrepreneurial team that is supported by experienced Venture Partners with diverse backgrounds ranging from unicorn founders to industry veterans and investment experts, creating a rich pool of wisdom, track record and network. 

PT1 is part of ERIC Group, a platform that unites progressive minds making collective investments along transformational megatrends. Members include (U)HNWIs, successful entrepreneurs, forward-thinking corporate and institutional investors that aim to benefit in two dimensions from interacting with #Futurebuilders – financial ROI combined with inspiration, data and technology access for their own transformational journeys.

The first closing of our second fund is done at €44 million! 🍾

Our Fund II for #startup investments in transformative real estate technologies is now online and with the first closing, we have already reached more than three times the volume of the first closing of our first fund.

PT1 Early-Stage Fund II is now live and operational, so we're calling all innovative #Futurebuilders from across Europe that tackle the mega challenges of our time created by increasing scarcity of natural resources, affordable living space and skilled labour. Let's transform the built world together!

For the first closing, we welcome more prominent investors like  Helaba, Schörghuber Corporate Group, Halton Group or the returning Fund I investor noventic group, who are joining the already announced Commerz Real AG, BRUNATA-METRONA GmbH & Co. KG, evoreal GmbH, JLL Spark, Liechtenstein Group, OTTO WULFF, Scout24 Group and Supernova Invest GmbH. Once again, numerous entrepreneurs and top managers from the scene like Thomas Wiegand, Thomas Zinnöcker and Birgit Rahn-Werner have invested. Welcome to the family!

Last but not least, we're excited to announce the promotion of Konstantinos Matsoukas and Klara Ritter to Associate Partners, while Kingma Ma will lead our London office as Managing Director.

#Marketing Communication

Multiple Krisen führen zu einer komplexer werdenden Welt. Mit den großen Herausforderungen kommen jedoch auch große Wachstumspotentiale - gerade für innovative #Startups. Deswegen investieren wir nicht nur in PropTech, sondern in transformative Technologien in den angrenzenden Assetklassen wie #Energie und Infrastruktur.

Auch der heute erschienene blackprint PropTech Report H1/2024 macht die Verschmelzung der Sektoren deutlich, denn er zeigt, dass knapp 70% der Technologieinvestitionen in der globalen Bau- und #Immobilienwirtschaft sich mittlerweile auf Klimathemen konzentrieren und stellt die Schlüsselrolle von Energieeffizienz, Zirkularität und dem Ausbau der erneuerbaren Energien im Bau- und Gebäudesektor dar.

We are a proud buyer of the very first ton of #carbon dioxide removed from the atmosphere through NeoCarbon!

Why is this more than just an empty gesture or a way to greenwash some of our own carbon emissions? Because this first metric ton of removed #CO2 through our portfolio company is only the humble beginning of a significant step in the fight against #climate change.

Inevitably, we will have to embrace the concept of direct air capture – technologies that extract carbon dioxide directly from the ambient air. Since 2022, the IPCC recognises that carbon dioxide removals (CDR) are critical to addressing climate change – and they need to be executed on a monumental scale if we are to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.

There are two approaches that can lead to grand-scale greenhouse gas removal:

1.
The centralised approach: There are a handful of places around the world like Iceland that offer the right conditions for industrial-scale carbon removal facilities. By using #sustainable geothermal energy, enough power can be produced to make these facilities ecologically and economically viable. The captured CO2 is subsequently stored in the ground (sequestration).

2.
The decentralised approach (the NeoCarbon way): An alternative option is to go where energy and carbon dioxide is actually emitted – and that means basically every large building, whether it may be manufacturing factories, data centers or cooling towers on top of shopping centers. NeoCarbon’s systems can be cost-effectively retrofitted, using the waste heat to power carbon capture. The CO2 can then either be stored or, even better, used directly at the site. Breweries and drink companies, for example, can use the CO2 to carbonate beverages, while cement producers can utilise it to harden their concrete.
 
But why should the built world install carbon capture systems on their roofs? 

The popular practice of becoming "net-zero" via buying cheap credits from remote carbon offset projects is facing much more scrutiny for good reasons. As the Guardian reported, “more than 90% of rainforest carbon offsets by the biggest certifier are worthless”, thereby producing only “phantom credits”. These practices will be outlawed by more and more governments around the world.

Additionally, industrial buildings and their owners will be required to put their waste heat to use rather than to blow it into the air - or face penalties. So what better way to offset a company’s own emissions than to utilise this energy to capture carbon that you use or generate quality removal credits?

This is why our own humble, green carbon removal certificate is only a way to signify the start of NeoCarbon’s big journey to capture CO2 on a gigaton scale – and we are excited to be a part of it!

If you want to learn more about technologies to adapt to climate change, read our new whitepaper on the topic here: https://lnkd.in/d2CFvP8G

Buildings contribute to 39% of global energy-related carbon emissions, with 28% resulting from heating, cooling and powering them. Therefore, modernizing our existing building stock to reduce #energy use is essential.

At PT1, Klara Ritter and Ada E. have uncovered the key factors influencing the European renovation wave. In our deep dive, we:

\ Analyzed recent European regulations on energy-efficient #retrofitting
\ Talked to numerous asset managers, investors and innovative #startups in the sector
\ Identified key bottlenecks slowing down the #renovation movement
\ Discovered critical solutions needed to achieve a #NetZero building stock by 2050

Our findings underscore the crucial role of energy renovations in decarbonizing aging buildings while also uncovering the complexities inherent in this sector.
 
We're on the lookout for passionate founders to lead the renovation movement. Reach out if you're one of them!

NeoCarbon's Direct Air Capture (#DAC) machine live in action. 

Our CTO Silvain Toromanoff and our Partnership Manager Daniël Besselink visited the #NeoCarbon pilot installation. 

Together with the customer, we discussed the progress made and the next steps to be taken. The picture shows the module where the #wasteheat from the industrial site is integrated as an #energy source. The DAC module already captures CO2 autonomously from ambient air. 

It is very exciting to see this project up and running and we are looking forward to seeing more of the upcoming projects come to life.
