The New York Climate Exchange (“The Exchange”) is a first-of-its-kind collaborative model for accelerating climate change solutions for New York City and beyond. Powered by its strong partnerships and future home on Governors Island, The Exchange will use education, research, an innovation hub, job training, and public programs to prepare communities to respond to climate challenges.
At the Deep-Tech Climate Innovation Panel, we will unveil The Exchange's groundbreaking incubation vision. We will present our innovative approach to nurturing and empowering start-ups in the climate deep-tech and research-driven sectors.
In addition, we will also delve into deep-tech climate topics with a panel of experts, shedding light on the challenges faced by aspiring start-ups, such as the scarcity of labs, funding, expertise, and the complexities of IP rights. Through concrete examples of start-ups that have struggled in these areas, we will illustrate how The Exchange is uniquely positioned to bridge these critical gaps and empower the next generation of pioneers in deep-tech entrepreneurship.
The Exchange will host a team of expert panelists to discuss how we can collaborate on climate deep-tech. Together, we can make a difference!
