According to a recent LinkedIn post from Sage Geosystems, the company’s COO, Jason Peart, took part in a roundtable at UC Berkeley during San Francisco Climate Week focused on scaling climate tech businesses. The discussion, hosted by the Berkeley Energy & Resources Collaborative, examined the full funding journey from early equity through first-of-a-kind projects and toward non-dilutive capital and project finance.

The LinkedIn post highlights that Sage Geosystems is pursuing a strategy centered on building a portfolio of strategic investors and “learning alongside the technology” as it develops its geothermal solutions. The post also points to partnerships, including a relationship with Ormat and access to Nevada, as tools to accelerate and de-risk early commercial deployments.
For investors, the emphasis on strategic capital, project finance readiness, and risk-sharing partnerships suggests Sage Geosystems is positioning itself for capital-intensive scale-up rather than relying solely on dilutive equity rounds. If effectively executed, this funding and partnership approach could improve the company’s capital efficiency, support faster commercialization, and strengthen its competitive standing in the emerging geothermal and broader climate tech markets.
