This is Climate Tech

Precision agriculture and alternative protein. Net-zero approaches to construction. Industrial decarbonization. Alternative fuels and zero-emissions transportation. Carbon capture solutions. These are just some of the intriguing “climate tech” innovations emerging to tackle the long-term crisis of global warming while creating a more sustainable, equitable, regenerative economy — interest has only strengthened amid the far-reaching economic disruption brought on by the coronavirus pandemic, which has underscored systemic shortcomings of our current model.   

Join this experienced panel of venture capitalists for a conversation about why interest in climate tech is resurging within the investment community and why startups that have forged strategic partnerships with large companies are of particular interest. Among the topics our experts will discuss:

  • Which areas of climate tech they are actively cultivating and why

  • What characteristics they seek in climate-focused entrepreneurs

  • How the economic downturn brought on by the coronavirus pandemic could change funding in 2020
