We're bringing together a few giga-startups and investors—from venture capitalists to late-stage infrastructure funders—to accelerate the growth and global rollout of climate tech.
The planet is in desperate need of companies with massive positive climate impact. Now.
There's a growing list of promising startups with innovative solutions that could significantly help our climate. They're ripe for scaling, but need funding and guidance.
Conversely, more and more investors are looking to support sustainability and climate solutions. They're armed with capital and business acumen, searching for the right ventures.
So why do these startups still struggle to secure capital?
Yes, many climate-positive startups are hardware-focused, making it difficult to attract software-centric VCs. But there are still investors open to these opportunities, like family offices, corporate venture capitalists, private equity firms, and pension and infrastructure funds.
The money is there, waiting to be deployed—how do we make the connections faster? Do startups need a new approach? Or investors? Could better collaboration or cross-boundary syndication be the solution?
Join us and help fast-track the application of technology and capital for our planet!
