Counteract Overview

Founded in 2020, Counteract focuses exclusively on early-stage companies developing carbon dioxide removal (CDR) solutions. Their inaugural fund, Counteract One, closed at £35 million in February 2023, with a first close of £15 million. The fund aims to support 35-40 projects, each with the potential to catalyze the removal of 500 million tonnes or more of CO₂ by 2050.
