# Investors

Block Green’s seed round included an extensive list of **high-profile investors**. Working with a large and international group of investors was our strategy from the get-go and we have been extremely lucky to meet and partner with amazing individuals.

> We are glad to have found **Founders Fund** as our lead investors and early believer. As one of the top venture capital firms worldwide, they have been very active at the **intersection between renewable energy and blockchain infrastructure**, proven by investments in companies like Crusoe Energy and Solugen.

Participating in this round is also **Dao5**, an important DeFi investment fund led by **Tekin Salimi**, former GP at Polychain Capital. Tekin is one of the most prolific investors in the industry and will be an important advisor for Block Green. Another key partner for Block Green will be **Coinbase Ventures** whose position at the center of the crypto industry and in-depth knowledge of the space will continue to prove very valuable in our journey.
