UpLink Annual Impact Report 2026
The disconnect between capital availability and market readiness slows innovations’ transition from pilot to market. UpLink was built to bridge these gaps and create shared pathways through which ventures can gain the partnerships, credibility and market access needed to scale in critical systems, including water, climate and nature, cities, health and emerging technologies.
Today, more than 139 UpLink Ventures actively apply AI across domains, illustrating how the technology can accelerate data-driven, scalable and system-level impact. These ventures have delivered measurable environmental and social outcomes and strengthened collaboration and thought leadership.
For example, UpLink Ventures raised over $850 million in investment in 2025, with a 53% increase in capital from 2024 to 2025. While accumulating significant economic growth, ventures also unlocked social and environmental benefits – treating 4.3 billion litres of wastewater (compared to 2.5 billion 2023–24) and avoiding 166,681 tonnes of carbon emissions (compared to 142,400 in 2023–24).
