Thomas Cain

CEO & Founder at Sustainability Partners

Thomas Cain founded SP in 2014. Due to initial successes, BlackRock (NYSE:BLK) purchased majority interests in 2016. SP completed private contracts in Colorado, Wisconsin, California, and Arizona in 2016 soon followed by its first major government contracts in Floria, Texas, Arizona, and California by 2018.

From 2002 to 2014, Mr. Cain was Founder and Managing Partner of two CleanTech venture capital firms (SAIL Ventures and EFW Partners) with over $200M in discretionary funds. Mr. Cain was the primary partner to source and govern the energy storage, renewable energy, motor, media, transportation, and energy efficiency investments.

Prior to his time in venture capital, Mr. Cain completed a successful acquisition and turnaround of failing Evans Systems (NASDAQ: EVSI), a Texas-based distressed oil and gas business. A spin-off of this was restoring mothballed fuel terminals on the gulf intracoastal from which he founded Starco Energy. Quintana Corporation purchased Starco in 2006.
