⚒️ 200+ Climate Startups Manufacturing the Future

Across batteries, materials, packaging, metals, chemicals and steel

Following last weeks semi-viral list of 70 Climate Deep Tech VC’s, we’ll try to one up ourselves with a list of 200+ startups working on re-building entire industries with decarbonisation in mind.

Green Manufacturing all starts by asking why everyday things are built, designed, sourced or produced the way they are today and exploring alternatives that have the potential to completely upend legacy industries.

From creating high-strength metals for the energy transition to eliminating hazardous substances in chemicals, creating clean fuels to get us around sustainably to inventing new materials to meet our growing consumption demands - the possibilities here are endless.

That’s also why green manufacturing will be a central focus of ours at the HackSummit New York this December and our first batch of speakers brings together some of the most exciting founders and funders in this space.

Ahead of then, we caught up with three CEO’s leading the new manufacturing revolution and put together a list of 200+ startups that you should have on your radar 👀

The host of our inaugural US HackSummit is where else than Newlab in Brooklyn’s Navy Yard, a one-of-a-kind deeptech ecosystem housed in a venue dating back to the early 1800s.

The Brooklyn Navy Yard has played a pivotal role in shaping American history, from its origins as a naval shipyard that at its peak saw 75,000 workers on site to its transformation today into a dynamic industrial park home to 500+ businesses including some of the cities brightest builders and inventors.

We can’t imagine a better setting to discuss the coming of the next industrial revolution in a space so steeped in manufacturing history.
