ClimateDoor

What ClimateDoor does

ClimateDoor is a Vancouver-based venture builder founded in 2020 that provides Growth-as-a-Service to growth-stage climate tech companies at Technology Readiness Levels 6-9. The firm embeds inside client ventures as an extended operating team, delivering capital raising, business development and partnerships, government relations, and non-dilutive grant support across segments including clean energy, food and agriculture, circular economy, critical minerals, and sustainable infrastructure. Its core offering, branded the ClimateDoor Platform, is positioned as an AI-enabled go-to-market system that combines data, outreach, and messaging to connect climate ventures with investors, corporates, and public programs through a claimed network of 1,500+ relationships.

The business model is professional services-led, with quote-based engagements typically running 3-6 months, supplemented by the potential for longer-term equity stakes in client companies. ClimateDoor has expanded via acquisition and merger, acquiring Cleanramp Consulting in September 2024 to add marketing capability, launching consumer brand Ona Naturals in January 2025, and merging with non-profit ClimCanada in June 2025 to create the ClimateDoor Impact sub-brand. The company also operates the annual ClimateGlobal event, the R2WSV Impact GTM Sprint with Web Summit Vancouver, and the EU-funded LCBA Canada matchmaking program, while holding equity in portfolio companies including Stardust Solar Energy Inc., which listed on the TSX Venture Exchange in May 2025.

ClimateDoor is privately held and founder-led, with no institutional funding rounds disclosed. The company is registered in British Columbia, Canada, and markets a global footprint spanning North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America, though operational scale remains small at 1-10 employees. Reported portfolio-level outcomes include $82M+ raised for clients, 100+ strategic deals closed, and $17M+ in grants secured; these metrics reflect client results rather than ClimateDoor's own revenue.
