Chevron Technology Ventures champions innovation, commercialization and integration of emerging technologies within Chevron.
What We Do
Chevron Technology Ventures (CTV) helps Chevron embrace emerging technologies to create new commercial opportunities, reduce costs and improve performance.
CTV serves as one of the company's most important technology "scouts," always searching for emerging technologies that could enhance Chevron's strategies. CTV identifies, acquires, tests, validates, and – if appropriate – helps integrate those technologies into the company's core businesses. Alternatively, technologies may be studied then "shelved" for future consideration.
Chevron Technology Ventures works through four business units.
Venture Capital
Chevron's venture capital business unit, Chevron Technology Ventures Investments (CTVI), finds and makes investments in early-stage companies offering technology valuable to Chevron. CTVI then helps Chevron business units implement that technology.
