When Curt Albright launched Clear Current Capital in 2017, “alternative proteins” were just started gaining traction as an investment sector. Recognizing the untapped potential, Curt, a seasoned financial expert, disrupted the status quo by creating Clear Current Capital Fund I, allowing, for the first time, outside investors the opportunity to gain access to this new sector. This traditional venture capital fund structure attracted a wave of committed investors eager to make a difference for animals, people, and the planet.

Since then, Clear Current Capital has been laser-focused on revolutionizing the food system, both within alternative proteins and the broader sustainable food ecosystem, by backing bold, visionary entrepreneurs who challenge the norms and fill critical gaps in the food system.

Companies we’ve backed in the past will look different than those we will invest in going forward, as our sustainable food system is ever-evolving. One thing is clear: we are unwavering in our commitment to making this shift happen.

CCC’s limited partners consist of individuals and institutions who recognize the importance of food in our ability to sustain a growing population without negatively impacting nature’s resources and all those who rely on them.

This shared desire for a positive impact on the food system drives us daily and allows us to be intentional with how we actively offer support and how we operate. It is a privilege to contribute to the food solutions of our future with a community of like-minded drivers of impact.
