@SouthwestAir If you want to experience a magnificent doom loop of incompetence and cruelty, boy does Southwest have it down to an art

[Sarah Sclarsic @sclarsic]

I don’t know who needs to hear this but never fly @SouthwestAir they dumped me in Denver (I’m headed to NYC) and stole my bag and refuse to give it back. 🫠

[Sarah Sclarsic @sclarsic]

@SouthwestAir lol I messaged Southwest and their attitude is “call our LGA folks.” LGA folks don’t answer the phone. Bag is stolen by SW who refuses to give it back or take responsibility. NEVER FLY SOUTHWEST. I’ve never met an airline this irresponsible. It’s truly shocking

Today, we’re announcing Voyager’s $275M Fund II.

We launched Voyager in 2021 with a clear conviction that the next era of progress will be built on foundational technologies: electrification, advanced manufacturing, and AI that optimizes the physical world.

Now more than ever, that conviction is being validated, and the opportunity to build a world of abundance has never been more clear. A generation of brilliant founders - engineers, scientists, biologists, chemists - is leading the way, reinventing how the world makes and uses energy, materials, and machines.

At Voyager, accelerating the success of those founders is our lives’ work. We are former founders ourselves - and engineers, scientists, and operators. We look to partner with founders whose vision and persistence redefines what’s possible.

We are grateful to our LPs for their ongoing support and to the extraordinary founders with whom we are fortunate to work.

Onwards.

@sclarsic, @sierrap, and the @VoyagerVC team

@TomKnightSynBio The moral arc of the universe is long but it bends towards carcinization

[Sarah Sclarsic @sclarsic]

Whether we choose to look and acknowledge it or not, reality marches along. It’s high time to throw everything we have at saving everything we can, to ensure a livable future for us and the many other creatures we share this planet with. https://t.co/Q1S7rS8DwZ

Thanks to @axios for inviting @sclarsic + @sierrap to talk shop on the future of the US economy, Voyager’s obsession w/ unit economics, + why we’re so excited about climate tech companies poised to win global markets on better price and performance alone.

Announcing @VoyagerVC’s $100M Select I opportunity fund. We’re doubling down on supporting the climate tech companies that are building a sustainable future for us all.

[Voyager @VoyagerVC]

We’re thrilled to announce Voyager Select I, our $100M opportunity fund. We’re as high conviction as it gets that the most important - and valuable - companies created this century will be those building the foundations of a decarbonized global economy, from energy to transportation to finance. These are massive global markets. With Voyager Select I, we're looking forward to doubling down on climate tech companies - software and hardware alike - poised for scale.

An enormous thank you, as always, to the company founders and builders creating a sustainable world for us all. It is a privilege to support you on your journeys.

We are grateful to Voyager's terrific LPs, and proud to welcome Novo Holdings and Northwestern University to the Voyager community.

Thank you to @BusinessInsider for covering our Select I announcement.

The path to deep decarbonization is actually a wire.

In Voyager's latest letter, we examine the twin imperatives of building long-distance transmission infrastructure and innovating within the constraints of the current electricity grid.

[Spark Climate Solutions @sparkclimate]

Spark is launching a new research funding opportunity to advance scientific understanding of methane sinks and whether, and if so, how, they could be safely enhanced to help mitigate some of the risk from increasing natural methane emissions
