OUR FOCUS & BELIEFS
Commercialising early-stage circular solutions to impact significant carbon reduction
01
Audacity required
We believe a healthy dose of audacity is required to get the climate reduction task back on track in time, and to overcome the latency driven by incumbent fossil fuel profits.
02
True Zero the goal
We believe Net Zero drags the laggards into action but True Zero has to be the goal with Carbon Negative the ideal objective in developing new climate tech solutions.
03
Better & Cheaper
We believe the green economy can be highly profitable for investors, but new solutions need to be both better and cheaper to overcome incumbent commercial & consumer inertia quickly enough to make an impact <2035.
04
Collaboration is faster
If our philosophies are aligned, get in touch. Cykle is keen to partner with companies & individuals of the highest integrity to leverage capital, expertise & speed,
