Our take
Growth in economic reasons for green infrastructure projects have increased corporate interest, yet investment into this sector is a largely manual, inefficient process hindered by aged complexities that have barely evolved. Banyan Infrastructure was created to provide the means for accelerated investment into this market through modern tech and a fresh approach.
The company offers an all-in-one project finance solution that allows clients to simplify their sustainable infrastructure portfolio. This allows global capital markets to meet the need for access to clean energy, water, transportation, and other critical infrastructure while enriching shareholders and growing a profitable revenue stream.
Banyan has seen significant growth since its launch and proof of its success can be seen in the funding secured in a recent Series A round led by VoLo Earth Ventures with several notable venture capital firms. Banyan, now valued at $47 million, will scale its go-to-market engine and enhance support to current customers, and these strategic moves are likely to propel the company to future success.
