EMERGING CLIMATETECH
Building Massachusetts' climatetech economy—from breakthrough to market.
MassCEC invests in Massachusetts companies developing the next generation of climate technologies. We fund innovation at every stage—from university labs to commercial deployment—creating high-skill jobs and attracting private capital that multiplies our impact. Every dollar we invest leverages an average of $4.56 in outside funding, keeping breakthrough technologies and the jobs they create in the Commonwealth.
Tech to Market
Supporting breakthrough climate technologies from prototype to commercialization. Our grants help Massachusetts startups and researchers prove their innovations work—attracting the private investment that turns ideas into businesses and jobs.
Investments
(2030 Fund)
Making strategic equity investments in early-stage Massachusetts climatetech companies when private capital won't. Our countercyclical approach fills funding gaps that would otherwise force promising companies—and their jobs—to leave the state.
