Frequently asked questions
Who makes investment decisions at Slate VC?
Slate VC operates with a four-equal-partner structure — Chloé Giard, Clément Buyse, Renaud Visage and Sébastien Léger all hold General Partner titles and the firm's published materials show no single managing partner or separate investment committee. The firm lists two investment associates who support sourcing and diligence, but all four GPs appear to share deal-making authority.
Which sectors does Slate VC explicitly back, and which does it exclude?
The firm concentrates on energy transition technologies and circularity — two sub-verticals within the broader climate transition — with disclosed investments in advanced materials recycling (Fairmat) and digital waste-management infrastructure (Resourcify). Slate VC does not publicize consumer-facing climate apps, mobility marketplaces, or carbon-accounting software as part of its active mandate, and its website positions the firm exclusively within industrial B2B decarbonization.
