Chris Woolhouse - Founder and Director

With more than 20 years of experience practicing law, both in private practice and in-house and working with start-up companies and SMEs, public and private institutions, I’ve learned that effective execution requires the right skills and network. A team dynamic that demands imaginative and open problem solving, effective communication internally and externally and all turbo-charged with deep alignment on mission.

That mission is a just, low carbon transition; from supporting innovation in clean-tech start-ups, the deployment of capital to mission aligned businesses and contributing to policy and regulatory design and business building. Scaling the deployment of public and private capital to solutions that enable resilience and adaptation to communities most affected by a heating planet, decarbonisation of energy systems and the regeneration of biodiversity. It is increasingly clear that these objectives will only be achieved by deep and open collaboration. Over many years of building networks of aligned collaborators we seek to assemble the right skills and resources to accelerate the transition to a sustainable future.
