Same company, different look, many new features, and much bigger impact. Almost 3 years into this journey. As hard as it is, I'm loving it. It's also go time.

The IMPEL National Showcase, held in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Building Technologies Office, brought together innovators, investors, and building tech experts for a game-changing Pitch Day! We were thrilled to see?IMPEL Innovators Leila Banijamali?of?Symbium: simplifying energy retrofits with digital instant permitting tools. Ratnesh Tiwari of?Next Glass: pioneering windows as insulating as walls. Farzana Gandhi, AIA, LEED AP of?Collective Infrastructures: advancing collective action for carbon reduction through new building infrastructure solutions. Suman Sinha Ray, PhD?of?Cabomba: creating HVAC filtration systems that work gently on the planet. A big thank you to Brian Walker, Nicholas Ryan, Ram Narayanamurthy from U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for their vision and guidance. Along with IMPEL Showcase judges Dr Charlotte Kirk (Clean Energy Ventures), Victoria Smith (Zacua Ventures), and Alec Wright (One Valley) for their invaluable feedback to our innovators from an investor lens. #publicprivate These innovations underscore IMPEL’s role in advancing building tech solutions for a more resilient, sustainable future.

Cradle to Commerce’s Cohort 2 Is Here! We’re excited to introduce the nine incredible teams selected for Cohort 2 of the C2C program! These visionary scientists and entrepreneurs?have proven their potential in the C2C Legion phase, and we’re thrilled to congratulate them on reaching this major milestone. Throughout the cohort phase, these teams?will push the boundaries?of hard tech development across cutting-edge test beds at Argonne National Laboratory, Berkeley Lab, Idaho National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and The Engine Accelerator. They'll also sharpen their business acumen through The Engine’s Entrepreneurial Blueprint program and receive personalized guidance from C2C Warrior Team expert mentors. The journey will culminate in summer 2025 with a pitch and demo showcase at C2C's Annual Summit. Supported by U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)’s Technology Commercialization Fund and administered by the DOE Office of Technology Transitions, #C2C is proud to continue driving these teams toward market impact with their game-changing #innovations!

Women and diverse entrepreneurs are essential for bringing climate tech to market and creating a sustainable future. CleanTechnica recently interviewed Reshma Singh, Director of IMPEL at Berkeley Lab and Cradle to Commerce, about how our programs can fast-track innovations by women and people of color, ensuring their contributions lead to equitable and impactful climate solutions. The article features several technologies and the IMPEL Innovators behind them, including: Kristeen Reynolds, CPA of GROWTH Development, Alexa Bednarz of Eco-Shelter, Helene Cornell of ARIS Hydronics, jhana porter of frakktal, Emily Ann Majewski of PHYTOSTONE, Rowan Bortz of Radiant Exchange, Aimee Gotway Bailey, PhD of Rock Rabbit, and more. In addition, IMPEL is led by a team of diverse women at Berkeley Lab! Read the article from CleanTechnica : https://lnkd.in/grXEYGMm IMPEL is now accepting applications for FY25 Cohort. If you're working on a cutting-edge building technology, this is a great opportunity to scale your impact. Deadline is September 22.

?? Reflecting on a Powerful Discussion: Buildings Panel at C2C Summit 2024 ?? Buildings are a major player in our energy landscape, consuming 74% of the U.S.’s electricity, 39% of total energy, and contributing 35% of carbon emissions (NIST, 2021). Achieving net-zero emissions requires our buildings to be more flexible, resilient, and smarter. In our recent panel, Tianhzen Hong, Computational Senior Scientist/Engineer at Berkeley Lab, led a compelling discussion on the five key trends driving zero-carbon building innovations: decarbonization, resilience, electrification, efficiency, and digitalization. We were fortunate to hear from Glen Junor, Program Manager at Sublime Systems, Yi Jean Chow, Investment Principal at Clean Energy Ventures, and Nicholas Ryan, Tech-to-Market Lead at the U.S. U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Building Technologies Office. Together, they shared insights into the latest technologies that are transforming energy efficiency, eliminating fossil fuels, enhancing grid integration, and utilizing renewable energy sources. Thank you to our moderator and panelists for their valuable contributions. Let’s keep pushing forward towards a sustainable, zero-carbon future! ??

We’re grateful for your leadership, Vanessa Z Chan! While we missed you at the C2C Summit, having Mary McManmon and Kirsten Hillyer join us was incredibly inspiring for our growth and impact goals!

?????? I've witnessed an inspiring transformation in our national labs recently! Historically focused on defense and energy, our institutions are responding to urgent challenges of climate change and public health. A shift that emphasizes collaboration among government, research, and industry. Through Cradle to Commerce (C2C), we accelerate the commercialization of innovations from national labs, in clean energy. Connecting entrepreneurs with cutting-edge technologies, we aim to bring market-ready solutions to life within three years. Together we can ensure that the groundbreaking work in our labs translates into real-world climate impact, fostering a sustainable future for all. Let’s unite our efforts to drive meaningful change! ?????? Check out the Inaugural C2C Summit at C2CSummit.lbl.gov that collides business, science, and carbon!
