Wrapping up COP 28 with leading Climate VCs from Europe and MENA

Join us to learn what our guests think about the outcome of COP28 and how VCs and LPs Are Paving the Way for a Sustainable Future in Finance and Technology

In this special feature, we're excited to share a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of venture capital and climate change as we wrapped up COP28 with some of the leading VCs attending COP this year:

In the episode, we dived into:

  • The evolution of climate tech as a crucial sector in VC as well as in fighting climate change.

  • The increasing role of VCs in shaping environmental policy and driving sustainable innovation.

  • Perspectives from both LPs and VCs on the future of climate finance and technology.
