As the world rushes towards net zero, new opportunities are constantly surfacing for start-ups who are able to meet rising demand for new climate tech and decarbonisation solutions. One area of rising opportunity lies with global carbon markets, which continue to grow and mature — filling a valuable role in sectors of the economy where decarbonisation is difficult and solutions are still emerging. How can participating in carbon markets provide opportunities for new activity, new business models and new revenue streams for climate startups? In this online session, Climate Salad joins with global climate change investment and advisory firm Pollination to explore this exciting space. Whether it’s emerging technology and software for emissions monitoring, carbon accounting and analytics, carbon capture or removal tech, or even carbon related fintech solutions, there are a host of ways the innovation ecosystem can engage with and benefit from these fast-growing global markets and the projects being created to generate and sell carbon credits. Pollination’s experts in venture capital and carbon markets will share and discuss how early-stage ventures can identify and pursue opportunities in this evolving space. This online panel discussion will feature Pollination Managing Director Brer Adams – a leading voice on climate and nature technology and ventures – as well as Ratri Wakeling, a Pollination Executive Director specialising in carbon projects and carbon markets. They'll be joined by Rob Waterworth from FLINTPro – a climate startup that has been highly successful at attracting investment as it moves to commercialise and scale its market-leading software solution that helps map and measure greenhouse gas emissions.
