  • Cleantech is the fastest growing sector, with capital invested growing over 200% since 2005. $115 million has been invested in 33 cleantech companies in the last five years.

"The growth in investments in Northeast Ohio's cleantech sector is not surprising, given both the market demand and our region's historical expertise in advanced materials and electronics applications," says Rebecca Bagley, President and CEO of NorTech. "We are seeing burgeoning numbers of companies creating differentiated solutions which address the world's need for renewable energy sources, clean water, and more efficient systems."

Deals in this space have included the 2009 $1.5 million round in Blue Spark Technologies from SunBridge Partners and Early Stage Partners; Carbolytic Materials' $12.4 million round from Advantage Capital Partners in 2008; and Arisdyne Systems' $5.3 million round led by Morgenthaler Ventures with participation from Cordova Ventures and Early Stage Partners in 2008.

"The dollars invested and number of investments realized in the past five years demonstrate that the region is generating innovative companies offering competitive investment opportunities, and these companies are accessing the capital they need to grow their businesses and create jobs," notes Ireland.
