💸 Where US VCs will Invest Next
13 top US Climate VCs told us where they’re placing their next bets.
What emerges next is a surprisingly coherent belief: the next decade will be defined by energy abundance, intelligent infrastructure, and the rebuilding of the physical world.
Supply chains are fragmenting and relocalizing
AI is rewriting power demand and industrial workflows
Biomanufacturing is moving production from lab to scale
New materials are reshaping how we design and manufacture
Hard problems of grid reliability, mineral processing, robotics, geothermal, circularity are becoming the biggest investment opportunities
Head this way to hear from leading investors as they reveal which technologies they’re looking to invest in next, and why. Are you working on the solution they are looking for?
⚡️ Energy x Policy to Open HackSummit
Since joining us at last year’s HackSummit, Crux has grown significantly, both in size and scope.
Recently they closed a Series B funding round, bringing the total venture capital raised to over $77 million, and expanded the team to more than 70 people.
Now Crux’s ambitions go far beyond growth, to redefine how energy project financing works in the United States. And Co-Founder and CEO Alfred Johnson will sit down with Marc Andrusko of Andreessen Horowitz to share his pathway to make energy project financing more liquid, efficient, and intelligent, unlocking the capital needed to power America’s clean energy future.
📈 Get Found, Get Funded
With $60Bn+ of climate capital behind them, the HackSummit speaker line-up puts investment front and center.
DCVC, SOSV, Lowercarbon Capital, AlleyCorp, Lux Capital, Shadow Ventures, Tamarack Global, Voyager Ventures and Breakthrough Energy join bright Founders to unpack the strategies, insights, and hard-earned lessons on what it takes to build with relentless ambition across critical minerals, built environment, biodiversity, robotics, adaptation and energy finance.
👀 One Last Date for your Diary
Can't wait for the HackSummit? Neither can we.
Join us on December 4th for a pre-summit get-together and networking.
You'll join Summit attendees and the wider ClimateHack community from across New York for a close-knit evening of inspiring talks on meeting rising energy demand and conversations from diverse Founders and Funders.
It's free to attend, come and join us there.
See you at one or other, or both events.
