In May 2010, WM made a strategic investment in MicroGreen Polymers.
MicroGreen Polymers, a US-based firm developing technology to reduce the amount of plastic required in consumer products and backed by US-based garbage disposal company Waste Management (WM), has raised $2m of a planned $30m series D round, according to a regulatory filing.
A regulatory filing said Joseph Vaillancourt, part of WM’s corporate venturing Organic Growth Group, is a director of MicroGreen.
In May 2010, WM made a strategic investment in MicroGreen when it closed its series B round at $6.9m from Waste Management, WRF Capital, the venture investment arm of Washington Research Foundation, Northwest Energy Angels and private investors.
