The drive toward a more robust and enduring reuse economy just received a significant push, as Upstream announced it has secured $3.0M in pre-seed funding. The capital will fuel the company's efforts to normalize reuse practices, grow and support the burgeoning reuse industry, and ensure a supportive policy environment for its expansion.
The round saw participation from institutional investors Y Combinator and Connect Ventures. They were joined by a notable group of individual backers, including Koen Bok, Jorn van Dijk, Nicolas Dessaigne, Julien Lemoine, Linda Tong, Jean-Charles Samuelian-Werve, Dave King, and Roxanne VARZA.
