Hello again.

Nick van Osdol is a writer, media strategist, investor, and startup advisor focused on category creation & uncovering 'underpriced' stories in sustainability, climate tech, and energy.

He’s a first-check & seed-stage investor at Climate Capital, where he focuses on truly novel tech, new markets, and category creation. In startup advising capacities, he actively deploys into small teams—both existing investments & not—to shape storytelling and GTM strategy.

All of these activities are leveraged by his owned-and-operated B2B media platform, Keep Cool, which provides news, analysis, and opinion twice weekly via newsletters & podcasts to 16,000+ operators, investors, and policymakers in U.S. sustainability & energy circles.

The pedigree and trust in this media brand (5 years running, intentionally undermonetized) can supercharge companies and often seeds novel conversations and memetic trends.

In his spare time, he enjoys reading and writing fiction (particularly short fiction & prose poetry), film photography, old stick shift cars (no SIM cards), and spending time outside and traveling as much as possible. He also enjoys studying spirituality and narrative studies.
