Active Impact Investments

Toronto-based @Metafold3D has secured $2.35 million CAD from @differentialvc, @active_impact, Jetstream, and @StandUpVentures to make it easier for manufacturers to design and 3D print complex parts. I checked in with Metafold’s Elissa Ross here. #CDNtech betakit.com/metafold-3d-cl…

Backed by @active_impact and @Breakthrough, Victoria-based #cleantech startup @othersphere has closed over $3 million CAD in seed funding to develop its location optimization platform for sustainable commodities. #YYJtech #CDNtech betakit.com/backed-by-acti…

@Metafold3D's Lightcycle beta is about to launch. Sorry, no spots left. But there's still limited room to join the waitlist: lnkd.in/eDsE_5ga for round2 10,000s of lattice cells Heirarchical structures Print directly from scan data #3dprinted #AdditiveManufacturing

Have you ever had some rooms too hot, some too cold and none just right? That's because cooling/heating systems don't optimize for where air needs to be directed. @Flair's systems allow heat pump exchanges to work in only the areas needed — which lowers energy usage by ~40%!

Big portco customer news! @Aquacycl is purifying wastewater for @PepsiCo, removing pullutants so water can be safely returned to the municipal system. @RVAnalytics is saving fuel for G&W on their MTL-Quebec Corridor, saving cost and carbon without affecting train travel time.

Global adoption of 3D manufacturing will help drawdown the 20% of global emissions created by how we make stuff. 3D printing allows for better materials, is less wasteful and more energy efficient than conventional production. @Metafold3D will help make that transition happen.

Certifying as a B Corp is hard. Staying a B Corp is just as hard. We are SO PROUD to recertify with a score that is nearly DOUBLE our first assessment at 144.4!! The median score for ordinary businesses is 50.9, 80 is required to certify and 144.4 is very, very high.

We are beyond excited to release our 2021 Climate Impact Report! This report covers the climate impact of the 18 portfolio companies we held in 2021 — 9 of which collectively mitigated 150,133 tonnes of CO2 equiviliant (tCO2e)! #climatevc #climatetech static1.squarespace.com/static/61f04c8…
