LinkedInThe pre-seed round was co-led by CapitalT and January Ventures to enable product expansion.
"Volatility in European energy markets is making energy more expensive for users, while decreasing profitability for suppliers. Energy has become a tax, ultimately making small businesses uncompetitive and inefficient. RYE’s mission is to make energy an enabler of growth, instead of a constraint."
The London-based climate tech startup will use the capital to grow its team and scale platform capacity.
"We’re witnessing the dawn of a future multi-trillion dollar industry that has the potential to not only stop the climate catastrophe but also to drive scientific progress, and create jobs and opportunity around the world. As we embark on building the platform that will unlock that growth, I’m delighted we’ve already been able to attract some of the best talent from across the industry, and now we couldn’t be more pleased to have backers like GV and Capital T to support us on this journey."
The pre-seed round was led by CapitalT with backing from a range of institutional investors and angel backers.
"We are so excited to continue to drive circularity in the sector in a new way – through the repair and tailoring of our clothes. Having such a brilliant roster of investors onboard to enable us to have true scale and impact. Here’s to a future of clothes that are made to fit and made to last."
The pre-seed round was backed by CapitalT and several prominent angel investors.
