AMP Ventures

Amp Ventures focuses on the Clean Energy sector that encompasses renewable energy, energy efficiency, and reduces the environmental impact. It was formed by an experienced group of energy sector professionals to focus on an underserved sector of the clean energy market; namely the need for smaller-scale investments. Though larger-scale renewable energy investment opportunities, such as wind farms comprised of several hundred megawatts of wind turbines requiring hundreds of millions of dollars of investment, have received much attention many clean energy transactions are smaller scale, from $50 million to less than $5 million. It is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

Spektral

Series A in 2017

Spektral, formerly CloudCutout, is a visual effects company that applies machine learning to image and video editing. Spektral was founded by Henrik Paltoft and Toke Jansen in 2014 after having worked together for a couple of years digitising another of Henrik’s companies, Caramba Imaging. Henrik has worked 20 years in the graphical industry becoming a recognised expert in image optimisation. Toke is an honour's student from Danish Technology University’s division of machine learning and they came up with the idea to build CloudCutout. Henrik had access to thousands of images and great cutouts of all. Toke had the know-how to build an algorithm enabling an automatic move from the original to the cutout.
