RBVC (Robert Bosch Venture Capital) is a global venture capital firm that backs early-stage deep tech startups in areas like energy efficiency, medical devices, and virtual/augmented reality. It supports companies with funding and access to Bosch’s network and resources to help them scale and bring innovations to market. Unlike traditional VCs, RBVC may purchase solutions for a proof-of-concept while allowing startups to keep their intellectual property, which speeds up development and lowers upfront costs. The firm earns money through equity investments and the eventual success of its portfolio. RBVC’s goal is to accelerate technological advances across multiple industries by connecting startups with Bosch’s ecosystem, customers (from medical centers to data centers), and global reach.

Berlin-based Cloover has raised $1.22 billion in combined funding to accelerate Europe's energy transition. The financing includes $22 million in Series A equity led by QED and MMC, with participation from Bosch Ventures and others, plus $1.2 billion in debt facilities and a €300 million guarantee from the European Investment Fund. Founded two years ago, Cloover has built an AI-powered operating system that helps installation companies offer renewable energy systems to households for €100-150 monthly over 25 years, eliminating high upfront costs.
