Profile

Gigascale Capital is a venture capital firm based in the United States, founded in 2023 by Mike Schroepfer, the former CTO of Meta. The firm focuses on investing in companies rebuilding the physical economy. The team comprises experienced individuals, including Victoria Beasley, Evaline Tsai, Haley Prout, and John Lilly. Gigascale differentiates itself by emphasizing technologies that prioritize performance and cost-effectiveness over traditional climate-impact narratives.

Gigascale Capital invests at the pre-seed and Series A stages, with a focus on clean energy and grid infrastructure, advanced manufacturing, critical minerals, and physical AI. The firm has a global mandate, although it primarily focuses on the US market. With a total of $250 million under management from its first institutional fund, it aims to back companies that promise lower costs than incumbents.

Gigascale's notable investments include Commonwealth Fusion Systems - commercial tokamak fusion, Form Energy - multi-day iron-air storage, Heron Power - industrial power electronics, Mill - food recycling, Panthalassa - ocean wave energy for AI data centers, Arbor Energy - supplying 5 GW baseload power for data centers, Radiant - microreactors, and Solcoa - domestic rare-earth supply chain. The firm's portfolio reflects a strong commitment to energy, infrastructure, and AI.
