Investment thesis
Katapult applies a systems lens at the intersection of technology and planetary resilience, aiming to accelerate a transition toward a regenerative future. Founded in Oslo in 2015 on the conviction that companies solving the world's hardest problems will also become the most valuable businesses of the century, it has grown into a family of organizations addressing different layers of the system: capital, infrastructure, tools, talent, and community. Its work spans an ocean-focused impact fund backing founders in transportation, circularity, ocean data, energy, and food and water, alongside a platform supporting the early-stage impact ecosystem and a non-profit arm stewarding its mission.
