About the event
Digital Disruption in Climate-tech
Climate-tech has entered a new era. Investing in Climate-tech is no longer about large, capital-intensive investments, big regulatory bets, or risky technology moonshots. Instead, tech and digital disruption will play a key factor in the next wave of cleantech innovation and growth.From enterprise software to big data analytics to disruptive digital business models, tech innovation is essential in accelerating and scaling the fight against climate change. Consider carbon accounting and reporting software needed to actualize emissions targets; analytics to quantify physical climate risks to real estate assets; AI and machine learning to optimize energy mix or precision agriculture. These are the clean-tech companies being built today.In this panel, we bring together perspectives from investors, start-ups, policy experts and business to discuss the myriad digital solutions and disruptions driving climate tech today, key trends, opportunities, investment theses and business model innovations.
