Leadership
Pulse Fund was founded by Tenzin Seldon (Founder & Managing Partner), who studied mathematics and climate policy at Stanford and, as a Rhodes Scholar, at Oxford.
She previously worked at the UN Environment Programme on disaster risk reduction and built and scaled climate companies before moving into venture capital.
She is joined by Rhod Needham (Venture Partner) and Kim Mueller (CFO/COO).
Investment Strategy
The firm invests at the early stage, seeking opportunities at the convergence points between energy, food and agriculture, infrastructure, and mobility, where it believes the biggest returns and the strongest risk mitigation come from understanding how these systems compound each other.
