Strategic collaboration bridges capital markets expertise with sustainability innovation.

BOULDER, CO, UNITED STATES, October 21, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Weild Climate Markets (WCM), an affiliate of Weild & Co., and Offset Energy Partners (OEP) today announced a strategic partnership to expand their joint environmental finance capabilities and increase access to capital and expertise in selected industry sectors. As part of the collaboration, Mark Mersman, Founder of Offset Energy Partners, has joined Weild Climate Markets as Managing Director of Environmental Finance to further WCM’s mission of supporting sustainable and profitable business models and companies across several important industry sectors. WCM and OEP will continue to jointly provide our clients with comprehensive investment banking services, combining traditional advisory and capital-raising leadership with advice regarding other forms of capital formation, including the creation, digitization, and trading of environmental assets, as well as growth strategies such as new customer identification and joint ventures.

The partnership combines the Weild Climate Markets platform with Offset Energy Partners’ deep expertise in environmental markets, lower carbon technology, and venture development. Together, the firms will connect innovative companies and sustainable ventures with the financial structures and strategic guidance needed for meaningful growth.

“Capital, connectivity and deep industry insights are catalysts for our clients’ success,” said John Rogers, Group Head of Weild Climate Markets and Senior Managing Director of Weild & Co. “Through partnerships like this with OEP, we look to turn our focus and expertise into growth for our clients, strategic partners, and financial investors."

Mersman brings over 30 years of experience in investment management, carbon markets, and real asset transactions. He has co-founded climate technology-focused ventures including Sentinel Detection Systems (in-situ methane detection) and BB&M Materials (low-carbon cement with up to 70% reduced emissions), and advises on carbon credit projects focused on decarbonizing oil and gas operations and transforming industrial waste streams into economic value.

“Offset Energy Partners was founded to build and finance real decarbonization solutions in the hydrocarbon and materials sectors," said Mark Mersman. "We co-found and advise companies, develop carbon credit projects, and secure capital to scale technologies like methane detection, low-carbon cement, and nature-based solutions. This partnership with WCM allows us to connect many more companies and projects with the investment banking services they need to scale."

The partnership marks another step in Weild Climate Markets’ growth, continuing its mission to bridge capital, technology, and innovation for its clients. WCM's collaboration with OEP will enhance its ability to identify and support firms that will deliver meaningful financial performance and measurable environmental impact.
