About Craig Lawrence

Craig Lawrence brings an unusually deep technical background to venture capital, having started as an engineer with patents ranging from portable fuel cells to office furniture before building and leading IDEO's dedicated energy practice. He focuses on the infrastructure and systems side of energy transition—like grid modernization and distributed energy resources—rather than just high-visibility climate hardware, and actively works as a co-builder with portfolio companies drawing on his hands-on operating experience.
