CHRIS SACCA

Chris Sacca is a prominent figure in the venture capital world, now leading the charge in climate technology as the Managing Partner of Lowercarbon Capital. His firm is singularly focused on investing in companies developing solutions to decarbonize the planet and mitigate the climate crisis. Sacca's vision for Lowercarbon Capital is to back the most ambitious founders tackling the biggest challenges in energy, food, materials, transport, and more, all aimed at drastically reducing global carbon emissions.

Sacca's career trajectory is marked by a keen eye for disruptive innovation. Before co-founding Lowercarbon Capital with his wife, Crystal Sacca, he established himself as one of the most successful early-stage investors through his previous firm, Lowercase Capital. There, he made legendary early investments in companies like Twitter, Uber, Instagram, Stripe, and Twilio, demonstrating an unparalleled ability to identify future market leaders. His early career also included a significant tenure at Google, where he worked on special projects and business development, further honing his understanding of technology and market dynamics.

After a highly successful run with Lowercase Capital and a popular stint as a guest shark on ABC's "Shark Tank," Sacca shifted his focus entirely to the urgent challenge of climate change. This pivot led to the creation of Lowercarbon Capital, where he applies his deep expertise in venture capital to a mission-driven portfolio. The firm invests across the spectrum of climate tech, from advanced energy storage and carbon capture to sustainable agriculture, novel materials, and electric transportation infrastructure. Sacca and his team provide not just capital but also strategic guidance and network access to help these critical climate solutions scale rapidly. His commitment to addressing the climate crisis through impactful investments makes Lowercarbon Capital a pivotal player in the global effort towards a sustainable future.
