Exclusive: Ceezer secures pre-seed funding

The start-up sees itself as a digital carbon bank and wants to make it easier for companies to offset their CO2 emissions. The start-up has now secured seven-figure funding.

Greentech Ceezer secures a seven-figure sum in a pre-seed round. The capital comes from Munich-based investor Picus Capital. The start-up intends to use the new funding to expand its team and further develop the platform.

Magnus Drewelies founded Ceezer in 2021. Companies can use the Ceezer platform to find climate protection projects and compare their prices and quality features. The companies can then buy the emission certificates directly from the project developers. This should make it easier for companies to offset unavoidable CO2 emissions. This is particularly interesting for companies that have committed to reducing their emissions. The Berlin-based start-up wants to guarantee transparency in terms of prices and quality on its platform.

"Magnus and his team are building the much-needed infrastructure for the voluntary carbon market, creating transparency, trust and facilitating transactions," says Oliver Heinrich, Partner at Picus Capital. He is convinced by Ceezar's concept. "They are taking on a really important challenge, because offsetting is crucial in the fight against climate change."
