The Bioindustrial Fund
Who We Are
As scientists and entrepreneurs ourselves, we speak the same language as the founders we back.
We are in a "Cambrian Explosion" of deep tech company formation. Juniper invests in breakthrough technologies that redefine trillion-dollar markets while solving humanity’s most difficult sustainability challenges. Previously, we were known as Climate Capital Bio.
Most early stage investors are not specialists in frontier science. We are.
60% of all physical inputs to the global economy can, and will, be produced by engineered biology, allowing us to finally kick our petrochemical dependency.
