Biography
EcoElectron Ventures is a seed stage capital investment fund established to commercialize promising clean energy technologies located in the San Diego area of California.
We provide strategic planning, business management and cash equity to start-up and very early stage companies.
We are interested in innovative technologies in clean energy generation, energy efficiency, energy storage and power quality, power transmission innovations, and energy control and communication software.
Typical initial cash investment range from $150,000 to $500,000. We typically provide the first outside source of funding, and think of ourselves as partners in the enterprise rather than just financial investors.
Due to our active participation, we are only interested in San Diego-based entrepreneurs, technologists, and companies (or willing to relocate to the San Diego region).
Product ideas and technologies must be commercializeable within three years. Businesses and technologies can be early stage, and we will get involved with companies doing product development, but we will not fund basic research and development.
We commit to the success of our portfolio companies though the 3-7 year period that’s typically needed to create an attractive exit opportunity.

Biography
GRI Equity invests in business demonstrating good business practice and enlightened management. We help small and medium sized businesses grow. We invest globally, managing disparate holdings through web based systems and supported by a global network of advisors and regular site visits. We have invested in Europe, Asia and America, having reviewed hundreds of opportunities and invested successfully in the growth of businesses from early stage through to listed.
Businesses may demonstrate a desire to adopt sustainable business principles in their product/service offerings or in their operations. So, for example, we might invest in a traditional non-sustainable product because the business is adopting cooperative operations management and wishes to substitute production with sustainable alternatives.
Though we will consider all sectors, except military and nuclear, we focus on businesses serving the following markets: Industrial and consumer Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS) goods and services, in particular sustainable substitutes for modern needs and conveniences: food, clothing, household, leisure and entertainment. We are also interested in information, communications and management technology, education, energy, transport, and waste management
We are capable of making investments from $250K to $2 million. We are not likely to invest in a business without sales, although we would consider helping develop these businesses to bring them to the point of being viable investments.

Biography
I am a high net worth individual private investor living in France. I provide seed and early-stage capital for start-ups and other ventures – all funding rounds for first investments and expansion of investment projects.
I served for 28 years in various sectors in the UK and French governments. As a retired Civil Servant, I’m interested in investments that offer combined debt and equity financing at 5.0% interest rate per annum, quarterly interest payments plus a 10% equity stake in the Company.
The equity stake will equally serve as collateral, such that in the case of default in capital repayment at maturity of investment (five years), I will retain the 10% stake and on full repayment of investment it reverses back to the Company.

Biography
Quercus Trust is run by David Gelbaum from California. He shuns publicity and has no webpage or other means of contacting him publicly available. Below is an excerpt from the one article I have found about him. All other info is from SEC filings. He has given more money to conservation causes in California than anyone else. His gifts have helped protect 1,179 square miles of mountain and desert landscapes, an area the size of Yosemite National Park. His donations to wilderness education programs have made it possible for 437,000 inner-city schoolchildren to visit the mountains, the desert or the beach often for the first time. Over a decade of steadily growing contributions including more than $100 million to the Sierra Club this mathematician turned financial angel has taken great pains to remain anonymous. In manner and appearance, David Gelbaum has maintained a low profile for someone who can afford to give away hundreds of millions of dollars. At age 55, retired from the rarefied world of Wall Street hedge funds, he lives in Newport Beach with his wife and two of his five children in a large home where visitors on occasion have mistaken him for the gardener. Bespectacled, 5 feet 5 and slightly built, he speaks softly, barely above a hoarse whisper. He drives a Honda Civic hybrid, wears jeans and T-shirts to business meetings and helps the kids clean up at the wilderness camp-outs he sponsors. Those who know him say he is never more uncomfortable than when asked to talk about his wealth or how much of it he has given away. His donations, which according to public records and other sources total at least $250 million, have preserved hundreds of miles of wildlife corridors across mountains and deserts, tying together once-isolated national parks and wilderness areas. One conservation deal, land trust experts say, is the largest single purchase of private land ever handed over to the U.S. government for one purpose: to leave it alone.
