About
Raj Kapoor co-founded a climate social app in 2007, giving him unusually early hands-on exposure to climate and community-building well before climate tech became a mainstream VC theme, and this long-standing climate focus now informs his thesis at Climactic that software, networks, and behavior change are central to decarbonization. He brings a rare combination of deep operator and VC experience at scale—having led as Chief Strategy Officer at Lyft, co-founded and exited Snapfish to HP for $300M, co-founded Fitmob, and previously had a successful VC track record at Mayfield—which provides a distinctive backdrop for his current role backing early-stage climate software founders.
