Clean Growth Fund II Hits £81.5M Second Close Toward £150M Target
UK climate tech investor Clean Growth Fund announced a second close of its second fund, bringing total commitments to £81.5 million (€94.5 million), advancing toward its £150 million (€174 million) target. The close was anchored by a £22.5 million (€26.1 million) commitment from Border to Coast Pensions Partnership's UK Opportunities Fund, with additional investments from Strathclyde Pension Fund (increasing its total to £30 million/€35 million), Islington Pension Fund, and East Riding Pension Fund. Fund II targets seed to Series A companies reducing carbon emissions, planning around 25 investments. It has already invested in four startups across battery, food, heavy industry, and buildings in Sheffield, Bristol, Cardiff, and London, following a place-based strategy. This news follows the fund's exit from clean heat network developer Rendesco in May 2026.
Accel Closes Oversubscribed $550M India Fund
Accel has closed a new $550 million India-focused venture fund, part of a coordinated $3.5 billion global raise that included simultaneous regional funds and a $1.35 billion growth vehicle. The India fund was oversubscribed and closed within weeks, even though Accel still has more than 55% of its prior $650 million India fund available for deployment. Accel plans to start deploying capital from the new fund in 2027 and expects Indian startups to build AI-powered applications and enterprise software on top of existing foundation models rather than compete with firms like OpenAI or Anthropic.
