Circulate Capital

Circulate Capital is an an emerging market investment management firm that finances innovations, companies, and infrastructure that scale solutions to the plastic waste and climate change crises. 

Circulate Capital identifies, incubates, and invests in opportunities designed to intercept ocean plastic at the source by collecting, sorting, processing, and recycling waste in South and Southeast Asian countries. As a result, waste is diverted from the environment into the recycling value chain, furthering the circular economy.

The Circulate Capital Ocean Fund (CCOF I) provides both debt and equity financing to waste management, recycling, and circular economy start-ups and SMEs in India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines. CCOF helps  solutions to  scale and replicate by connecting them to the supply chains of the world’s leading companies.​

Circulate Capital Disrupt is a companion venture and private equity fund to CCOF that invests globally in disruptive technologies at the nexus of climate tech and circular plastics. These include innovative materials, alternative delivery models, advanced recycling technologies and deep technologies that apply big data and artificial intelligence to expand circular supply chains.
