Climeworks is one of Europe's most important climate-tech companies because it is building commercial direct air capture systems that remove carbon dioxide from ambient air. The company operates in a category that sits beyond emissions reduction alone: carbon removal infrastructure intended to address legacy emissions and hard-to-abate sectors. Its plants use modular collectors and specialized filters to capture CO2, after which the gas can be permanently stored or used in industrial processes. That combination of chemical engineering, energy systems, project execution, and long-term offtake sales makes Climeworks a very different kind of startup from software-led climate businesses. It is a capital-intensive industrial platform that depends on trust, scientific credibility, and customer willingness to commit to the future carbon-removal market. In the European ecosystem, Climeworks matters not only for its own category leadership, but also because it shows that globally significant climate infrastructure can be conceived, financed, and scaled from Europe. It serves as a benchmark for founders and investors interested in hard-tech and climate infrastructure companies where the technical ambition, funding requirements, and operational complexity are far greater than in conventional SaaS.
Cyrkl is a circular-economy marketplace described as “Tinder for industrial waste.” It enables factories to sell scrap materials such as plastics or metals to recyclers instead of landfilling them. The platform improves pricing transparency and accelerates reuse of materials across industrial supply chains.
