Great final pitch competition last night with CleanLeap accelerator, who's goal is to turn green ideas into successful startups. I was really inspired by all of the individuals who pitched their business ideas that are solving environmental and climate related problems in the world. I was also inspired by the people running the CleanLeap accelerator and everyone who played a part in this program (Porter Wong, Mena Blue, Pedro Blas, Martin B.)- who all share a passion for using business to solve environmental and climate related issues worldwide. Congrats to the winners and congrats to all the individuals who presented. I hope you continue to develop your businesses and get the support and funding you deserve. If you are someone with a business idea or are a new founder, Santa Clara University has free business courses in both English and Spanish for people looking to start and grow their own business.

I had a great time at the U.S. CleanLeap’s #climatetech pitch competition! It was my first foray into the #SiliconValley #startup world. It was cool learning about entrepreneurs’ innovative ideas — from how AI can help utilities prevent fires to potentially cheaper alternatives to EV batteries — as well as trends in the #venturecapital world. I also enjoyed networking and exchanging views about where we see the #climate and #sustainability space evolving! Thanks to JPMorganChase for hosting and the sponsors of this initiative.
