Nick de la Forge is a trained industrial engineer and deep-tech entrepreneur who brings a technical and systems-engineering background to climate investing at Planet A Ventures, having worked across blockchain, AI, IoT and commercialization at companies like Earlybird, XAIN, and KILT Protocol. He advocates for rethinking VC fund structures through evergreen vehicles, new liquidity mechanisms, and tokenization to better finance long-term, capital-intensive climate technologies like nuclear fusion that don't fit conventional fund timeframes.

Notable Investments
Planet A Ventures is the first European VC to make sustainability assessment a mandatory part of its investment decision-making, with an in-house team of scientists who can veto investments on impact grounds and conduct rigorous life cycle assessments before every deal. The fund combines exited founders and academic scientists as equal partners to focus specifically on early-stage European climate tech and hardware solutions that many generalist VCs avoid.
