She started her climate impact-based fund called Climentum Capital, which has a team of 2 female and 3 male members.
In the conversation, she shared the challenges she faced while navigating the investment world as a woman. From juggling travel, meetings, and managing workload, to maintaining crucial networking channels, while shouldering the invisible burden of family and childcare.
It's a marathon with endless hurdles, further magnified by the stark underrepresentation of women in a historically male-dominated field.
Despite increasing efforts, the number of women founders and investors remains low in the startup and investing scene, alongside the capital they secure. While sectoral choices play a role, underlying factors like unconscious bias and limited access to networks likely contribute more significantly.
Through her conversation, she shared her journey navigating the climate tech funding landscape. Her fund invests in impactful startups across various sectors, including food tech, energy, and mobility, each playing a crucial role in her mission to mitigate climate change.
The fund plays a pivotal role in amplifying the voices of climate warriors like Continuum, who are revolutionizing wind turbine recycling. With their support, One. Five is another startup developing sustainable paper-based solutions to replace plastic packaging. These are just a few examples of how the fund empowers startups across sectors to make a measurable difference in curbing climate change.
Investing is a field with less female representation, but women like Doerte are paving a path toward gender inclusion and are role models for other women to look up to.
