By conviction.
Planet Earth is our home - with no foreseeable alternative. Our livelihood is only protected as long as critical ecological limits are not exceeded. Today, we are already in a situation in which our ecosystem is under pressure in almost all relevant areas (Planetary boundaries) is so unstable that this catastrophic state represents an enormous challenge for our civilization. Let's just list a few: Climate change, loss of biodiversity, excessive land use and freshwater consumption, acidification of the oceans and, and, and.
Although our economy and our consumer behavior are still often the cause of many problems today, we believe that New and changed business models and technologies can make a significant contribution to stabilizing our system and, to be completely honest, absolutely must. That is why DWR eco advocates solutions for avoiding emissions, using renewable resources and realizing a circular economy. We support The company, Investors, which Politics and Civil society to develop effective solutions and disseminate them as quickly as possible so that the urgently needed transformation towards a climate-compatible and resource-efficient way of life can succeed as quickly as possible.
Within the scope of this green transformation we accompany new solution providers (start-ups) and established companies (medium-sized companies and groups) or Investors The same applies to companies that have either already fully aligned their business models with the stabilization of our ecosystem or are on a direct and credible path to doing so. We are not available for greenwashing.
We see commercial and astronautical space travel as a lever for sustainability. Spacetech enables global emissions monitoring and the protection of sensitive ecosystems, Digital infrastructure and technological innovations for a resource-conserving economy. What is created in space under extreme conditions - closed CO₂ cycles, water recycling or microfarming - is used on Earth in the Decarbonization and in the protection of our livelihoods.
The aim of our work is to Stabilization of the global ecosystem in the field of tension between economic, political and technological possibilities - always taking into account the the latest scientific findings. There are many ways to achieve this and they are often characterized by a high degree of technological and regulatory complexity. This makes it all the more important to create an environment in which innovations and future-proof business models can flourish. free ideas competition develop and assert themselves in the market.

Because it's long past 5 past 12, we're getting more involved than Nine-to-five.
In addition to our central role as a strategic partner for visionary cleantech pioneers, DWR eco and its founders are also independently committed to improving living conditions on earth. Over time, this initiative has resulted in Strong mergers and alliances that have created pioneering initiatives and are actively driving the transformation of our economy and society. Today, we support a large number of alliances that are committed to future generations - from the regional to the global level. We want everyone to live on a beautiful, healthy planet for a long time - just as we have been able to do for a long time.
Leaders for Climate Action (LfCA)
We co-launched Leaders for Climate Action 2019 to bring together leading digital entrepreneurs and VCs to promote climate action across industries. In this way, we are actively helping to systematically develop climate-conscious leaders in the digital and VC industries and make their companies climate neutral.
Global Eco Transition gGmbH (GET)
Global Eco Transition gGmbH creates an environment for actors who promote forms of life and society that preserve the natural planetary boundaries. Here we network relevant stakeholders through various projects, develop ideas and concrete implementation proposals, prepare the current state of knowledge and communicate with the public and decision-makers.
Enterpreneuers for Future (EFF)
We co-initiated E4F in response to the Fridays For Future movement to demonstrate that companies working to develop new technologies, products, services, or business models are already working as professionals toward a carbon-free society, supporting the demands of Scientist for Future and Fridays for Future.
Berlin-Brandenburg Energy Network
The Berlin-Brandenburg Energy Network (BEN) was established through the involvement of PWR eco founder David Wortmann and actively managed as executive director for about 10 years. Today, David is a member of the board of directors. The goal was to connect the rapidly growing cleantech start-up scene in the German capital region with established players from business, science, finance and politics.
Energy Watch Group
Over nearly a decade, we helped develop and successfully established the Energy Watch Group as an autonomous global network of scientists and parliamentarians. It demonstrates in a scientific and analytical way that a full supply of 100 % renewable energy is possible. David Wortmann is a member of the advisory board.
Investments, co-founding and mentoring
We are deeply rooted in the cleantech and climatetech startup scene and believe in the power of entrepreneurial disruption and scaling. As such, we are involved as mentors, business angels, co-founders, advisors and sparring partners for a wide range of VCs and accelerators. That's why we've made investments in major funds like Planet A and Proptech1, as well as direct investments in companies like FlashFix, Ecoworks, and Volytica. We also actively co-found companies such as EcoWert360 and ClimateTechTalents.
EcoValue360
Municipalities, neighborhoods and companies could already supply themselves completely from renewable energies and enable emission-free mobility today. But they often don't know how. That's why we co-founded EcoWert360 - a company with expert engineers and consultants who develop tailored concepts for a long-term, climate-neutral energy supply in both the electricity and heating sectors. The special cross-sector approach makes it possible to close material cycles and save resources.
ClimateTechTalents
We co-founded ClimateTechTalents because the transformation to a green economy needs one thing above all: People who tackle, lead and implement. Not only are there more and more companies that need dedicated support from new employees; no, many people no longer want to work for companies that contribute to the degradation of our natural resources. Young professionals or seasoned industry veterans are looking for a meaningful use of their time and talents. Providing these is the mission of ClimateTechTalents.
Eco Innovation Alliance (EIA)
The Eco Innovation Alliance is the free of charge Family & Friends network of DWR eco. Here we inform about our progress, significant achievements of our partners and customers as well as relevant stakeholders on their way to a climate neutral society. We share important news on opportunities and challenges of sustainability transformation.
Mission Homebound
Mission Homebound is the interface between NewSpace players and traditional industries. The aim is the targeted expansion of earthbound value chains into space. We want to systematically develop new industrial fields of application - such as production in zero gravity - in order to make them applicable for sustainable economic use on Earth.
We combine climate research, astrophysics and cleantech entrepreneurship and provide conceptual and, if required, personnel support for missions in space.
Our roots.
PWR eco was founded in 2012 by David wordman. David grew up on the edge of the Ruhr area in the middle of nature and felt a deep emotional connection to the preservation of our nature from an early age. During his studies in Germany, the UK and Spain, he saw himself primarily as an entrepreneur - not as an end in itself, but in order to use the great potential of creativity, pioneering spirit and disruptions in the economy for the preservation of our natural foundations of life.
He began his career as a research assistant in the German Bundestag on the team of energy transition pioneers Hans-Josef Fell and Hermann Scheer. Later, he moved into business and helped the solar industry to become competitive and held the position as Head of Climate, Energy and Environmental Technologies of the German Government's Economic and Investment Promotion. In addition to founding PWR eco, he has co-founded several other cleantech and climatetech companies, is a networker, business angel, mentor, speaker and podcaster.
Together with an international team of experts including policy insiders, journalists, marketing professionals, creative designers, scientists, entrepreneurs, engineers, lawyers as well as PR professionals, the PWR eco team is highly intrinsically motivated to make a real difference in the fight against the climate and environmental crisis through our partners' solutions.
