Climate change is one of our generation's most pressing cultural challenges, and to overcome it we must design inspirational products, not just better technology. 

We’re investing in creative technologists building solutions that can meet the moment and scale while holding design as a key principle.

For BEACON, Baukunst and PROWL co-curated twelve exhibitors who are at the cutting edge of material science, product design, and systems-level solutions, including companies we’ve invested in like FYTO (carbon-negative protein sources) and Orange (EV charging).

Bringing together a diverse audience of investors, designers, founders, technologists, and entrepreneurs, BEACON offered a much-needed platform to explore how the intersection of science, design, and technology is setting the stage for a material revolution.
