How have climate technology startups adapted since the passing of the landmark Inflation Reduction Act? What more policy work must be done to stimulate rapid deployment of climate change solutions?
Hear from climate tech founders, investors, and policy experts. Includes presentations, moderated Q&A panel, and light lunch. Hosted by Noya, Union Square Ventures, and Collaborative Fund.
In this session, we will learn how the passing of the IRA impacted several climate technology startup founders' businesses and outlooks:
- Josh Santos, Co-founder and CEO of Noya
Deploying Direct Air Capture technology to remove excess CO2 from the atmosphere.
- Kathy Hannun, Founder and President of Dandelion Energy
Offering affordable geothermal installations that provide heating, cooling and hot water to homes.

Producing low-cost, clean hydrogen to decarbonize the world's chemical and heavy industries.
We will then learn from Sasha Stashwick, Director of Tech Policy at Carbon180 - the climate NGO on a mission to reverse two centuries of carbon emissions.
