Greentech Klima raises ten million euros

The start-up has developed an app that allows users to measure their carbon footprint. This has convinced several investors.

Greentech Klima raises ten million euros for its climate protection app. The Series A round was led by Keen Venture Partners. HV Capital, Headline, 468 Capital and Adjacent are also investing in the start-up. Tech entrepreneurs such as Pitch founder Christian Reber, Wooga founder Jens Begemann, Blinkist co-founder Niklas Jansen and Tier Mobility founder Lawrence Leuschner with his Blue Impact Fund are also participating in the current financing round.

Markus Gilles, Jonas Brandau and Andreas Pursian-Ehrlich have been working on their climate protection app since 2019. The app is designed to enable users to measure their personal carbon footprint. Users can also support certified climate protection projects with a monthly contribution to offset their emissions. The app will also provide knowledge about the climate and give personalized tips on how to save emissions.

With the new financing, the company is also launching its B2B offer "Climate for Teams". The offer enables companies to make the app available to all employees. The aim is to embed more climate protection in the corporate culture. "Companies play an enormously important role in the cultural change that the climate crisis requires," says Gilles about the new offer.
