Frequently asked questions
How does Platform Zero source proprietary deal flow?
Platform Zero sources opportunities by actively co-creating startups rather than screening external pitch decks, which is an inherently proprietary model. Its positioning in Rotterdam, a hub for maritime and energy infrastructure, gives it adjacency to port operators, shipping companies, and grid managers that represent both commercialization partners and idea origination points. The firm's newsletter and content operation also serve as a market signal, drawing in climate tech founders and corporate partners looking to decarbonize industrial operations.
Which sectors does Platform Zero explicitly avoid?
The firm's public mandate is affirmatively tagged to climate tech, energy, and maritime. Sectors outside industrial decarbonization — such as consumer software, fintech, digital health, or media — do not appear in its portfolio or editorial content. Platform Zero's sector concentration functions as a hard negative screen for anything lacking a direct link to physical energy or maritime infrastructure.
