Our story

Katapult started in Oslo in 2015 as a single venture fund, founded by Tharald Nustad on a simple conviction: that the companies solving the world's hardest problems would also build the most valuable businesses of this century.

A decade on, that single fund has grown into a family of organizations, each tackling a different piece of what it takes to move impact capital from the margins to the mainstream. We invest a systems lens at the intersection of technology and planetary resilience to accelerate the transformation towards a regenerative future.
