SB Ventures is an independent advisory practice helping technology and renewable energy companies navigate unfamiliar markets — turning distance into an advantage instead of an obstacle.
I'm Sebastjan Brajer, founder of SB Ventures. My background sits at the intersection of information and communication technology and the renewable energy transition — two industries that are quietly becoming one, as data infrastructure gets hungrier for power and power infrastructure gets smarter.
Before starting SB Ventures, I spent my career on the side of execution rather than theory — working close to the technical and commercial decisions that determine whether an ambitious project actually ships, scales, or survives contact with a new market. That experience is what SB Ventures is built on: fewer slides, more decisions that hold up under pressure.
Today I work as a direct, independent partner to companies entering markets far from home — the kind of engagement where being technically fluent, physically present, and structurally independent matters more than the size of the firm behind you.
Scroll through what SB Ventures actually does.
Technology strategy, vendor and partner evaluation, and market-entry advisory for hardware, software and telecom companies expanding into new territory.
Strategy · Partnerships · Market EntryAdvisory for solar, storage and wind developers and technology suppliers entering new regulatory environments, grid codes and supply chains.
Residential · C&I · UtilityA direct line between innovators abroad and the market they're entering — practical guidance on structure, local partners, and how things actually get done.
Entry Strategy · Local Partners · Regulatory NavigationSolar and storage look identical on a spec sheet. The market, the financing and the regulation change at every scale.
Advising manufacturers and platforms on how rooftop solar and home battery products actually enter a new market — channel, partners, and who they compete against.
Businesses controlling their own power costs with on-site solar and storage — sizing, financing structure, and the suppliers worth trusting.
Grid-scale projects live or die on interconnection and regulation — the part of the deal most newcomers underestimate.
Every market entry eventually becomes a question of infrastructure.
The unglamorous systems and system centers that decide whether everything else works.
Networks and platforms built to move data as reliably as electricity moves current.
Architecture that still holds up when a pilot becomes a rollout.
Most of my clients aren't local. They're technology and energy companies based abroad who need a trusted, independent presence closer to the markets they're entering — someone who can translate not just language, but expectations.
You work with me, not a team of juniors relaying decisions back and forth. Faster answers, fewer translation errors.
Advisory grounded in real ICT and renewable energy fundamentals — not generic market-entry templates repurposed for any industry.
SB Ventures is early — deliberately. Engagements start focused, and grow into deeper advisory as trust and scope develop.
