Announcing Climate Techies Networking Meetups
Part 1. Online Bi-Monthly Sector Networking Calls!
Are you looking to meet more likeminded folks in your sector to explore potential synergies, partnerships & collaboration? If so, our Strategic Sector-Focused Networking Sessions might be for you.
We decided to launch this Member-Only initiative to help Climate Techies connect with the investors, corporates, fellow founders and SMEs in their space because collaboration MASSIVELY accelerates impact and we wanted to create an incredible opportunity for our paying members to get even more value out of membership and our community.
But we’re offering free trial sessions of our upcoming Sector Networking Sessions in case you want to join 24 other folks focused on Sustainable Supply Chain or Transit & EVs or Energy & Electrification and see for yourself the value of becoming a full Climate Techies Members (only $10/mo or $100/yr currently but increasing to $12/mo or $120 per year in 2024)

UPDATE: Changing The Startup Tank to Monthly
As part of our effort to drive great impact as well as deliver extreme value to our Climate Techies Members, we’ve decided to reduce the frequency of our Startup Tank sessions to monthly to both uplevel the quality for all participants and investors as well as have more resources to dedicate to our exclusive Member-Only sessions and value creation (see above sessions).
TLDR: The Startup Tank will air at 5-7pm CET on the 1st Monday of the month
Want to apply for an upcoming session? thestartuptank.com for more details.
Climate Techies Membership Note
The grace period for non-paying members will end in Jan 2024, at which point we’ll then begin removing non-members from premium Whatsapp groups, database listings, email lists etc..
NOTE: So please secure your membership ASAP and if you are already in our Climate Techies database, you can just submit your membership payment here without having to complete entire signup form and we’ll do the rest :)
Wondering why we decided to start charging?
Building and running one of the largest climate tech communities globally has a TON of costs and effort associated + tens of thousands of hours on my part personally, let alone our team...?
And founders/VCs/corporates… do you give your product and 1000s of hours away free to your all of clients?
We NEED 4WARD.VC to be sustainable if we’re going to help drive sustainable change and action for all.
Plus, if membership isn’t worth at least 10x the $100/yr cost with all the resources, partnerships, JVs, networking, events etc… and time you should be saving, you’re not leveraging our community & platform very effectively. It’s time to get to work hustling and making things happen through collaboration!
