Using Private Equity to Fuel Diverse Clean Energy Solutions
Only 1% of all private equity funding is awarded to startup founders of color.
ChargerHelp!, with financial support from Energy Impact Partners, sought to change this by using their funding to improve the reliability of electric vehicle charging stations.With Wilbron’s expert counsel, ChargerHelp! presented their case to corporate America, advocating for increased corporate investments in charging stations. Their efforts had a significant impact on influential brands such as Tesla, Rivian, and others.
The outcome of our collaboration captured the attention of Vice President Kamala Harris of the United States, and it helped them successfully close funding rounds that defied the data regarding startup funding for founders of color.
