About
Building at the intersection of power, compute and capital.
CF Group was founded in 2023 — as Climate First — by Nadav Steinmetz, entrepreneur and investor, previously at Blackstone, on a simple thesis: energy and technology, together, are the defining investment opportunity of our generation.
Since then we’ve backed dozens of companies across the US, Europe, and Israel, and built partnerships with the world’s largest players in energy, automotive, mining, and manufacturing.
What drives us hasn’t changed: backing the entrepreneurs turning ingenuity into companies that matter.
Investment Thesis
Building out the systems behind intelligence.
The future of intelligence depends on abundant, clean and affordable energy. We back companies enabling breakthroughs in power generation, storage, grid flexibility and digital infrastructure.
Compute is the bottleneck of the decade. We invest across the full stack — power, chips, data centers, orchestration.
The West is decades behind on critical minerals. We own assets across the value chain and apply AI to onshore manufacturing, national security, and defense.
Decarbonization is now driven by economics rather than policy. We partner with businesses delivering faster, cheaper and more efficient industrial systems.
A Google search takes fractions of a watt. An AI query: ten times more. An agentic task: ten times again. We back the systems that will scale it.
Global Presence
Five capitals, one platform — working alongside sovereign institutions, global banks and industrial leaders.
