Summary
We are launching a ClimateTech venture that will tackle the growing shortage of skilled labour in energy transition activities. Our solution will enable employers of electricians, HVAC technicians, and other green trades to preserve the know-how of experienced technicians and use it to level up their workforce. We are looking for an entrepreneurial and highly experienced individual to act as Founder and CEO to build, lead and scale this venture.
Please note: This is not an employee opportunity at Diagram Ventures, but an opportunity in a new company created through our venture studio model. This company will be independent of Diagram Ventures.
Opportunity
The energy transition depends on experienced electricians, HVAC technicians, renewable energy technicians, insulation installers, and other skilled trades. We are increasingly hearing of project delays and budget overspend driven by a shortage of labour in these fields. Meanwhile, this shortage is only anticipated to worsen as energy transition drives up demand and 20-50% of the workforce across critical trades retires in the coming decade.
It can take up to 5 years of on-the-job learning for new workers in these fields to become effective at their jobs. However, there is a critical shortage of on-the-job learning opportunities that remains unresolved as seasoned workers are often already spending half their time coaching and supporting less experienced technicians. We envision a game-changing solution to rapidly scale-up on-the-job learning via capturing real-time coaching moments and transforming them into searchable answers, training guides, and skill assessments.
This venture has been significantly de-risked, with extensive market need validation and a growing commercial pipeline. Diagram provides capital, network, and support services, giving you the leverage you need to quickly scale this business.
We are assembling a dream team of entrepreneurs and technologists, and we are now looking for an accomplished co-founder & CEO to lead the venture. This opportunity is ideal for a motivated entrepreneur, looking to maximize their chances of success, all while retaining significant founder equity.
