About this Event
What We'll Explore Together
Past: Rescuing What We Can't Afford to Lose
As the Trump administration continues to delete critical climate datasets, one organisation is racing to preserve decades of research and innovation before it disappears. We'll hear from Aparna Shrivastava and the team behind The Climate Reserve on why data is infrastructure, what happens when it's gone, and how to rescue it.
Present: What Does It Take to Build a Climate Startup Today?
Building in climate is hard. The capital landscape is shifting, the timelines are long and the pressure is relentless. Leonidas Howden, Managing Director from DESCycle, is bringing a ground-level perspective on what it means to be in the arena right now.
Future: Funding the Breakthroughs of Tomorrow
The Advanced Research + Invention Agency (ARIA), the UK's frontier R&D agency, exists to invest in the ideas too ambitious for conventional funding. Yannick Wurm, Programme Director, will explore how to fund Moonshot R&D and what that means for the next 20 years of climate innovation.
