Had an amazing time at Innovation Zero, meeting so many interesting people working at critical junctures of climate and business. Expect more in the coming days, but as an American there was something really striking: Many people talked about how the US is now leading in clean-tech investment and the UK has to do more to catch up. That was really not the paradigm throughout my environmental career. The US was always behind on policy, investment in renewables was behind Europe and China (at least the perception), and now suddenly its not. Of course, this wasn't sudden, the US after failing on climate miserably for 4 years found a way forward. Will be interesting to see if the UK follows that shift after several years of lackluster climate performance. One other quick observation: IZ really felt like a modern clean-tech conference. For so long I would go to environmental conferences and there would be one banker, usually from Credit Suisse or somewhere random, and like two green companies. The past two days it felt like everyone we met was either an investor or a company looking for investment. That's huge. We are just getting started.

Innovation Zero was a wonderful opportunity to take the lay of the Net Zero land across the UK. Amid a policy to and fro on the eve of local elections, we heard from entrepreneurs and SMEs working in every aspect of the low-carbon transition – although the UK is still heavily weighted towards Energy first and everything else later! Many SMEs were worried about being lost in the "valley of death" between incubation with the likes of Innovate UK and the first steps of scale and commercialization with VCs. Everyone wants consistency from policymakers in order to have the confidence to invest, and a key challenge for the next government will be enabling patient capital to find its way to high-potential companies that are not going to deliver huge investor returns in a short time frame. That said, we also learned more about initiatives like Bristol's City Leap initiative, which is already injecting nearly £500m into low-carbon infrastructure thanks to a public-private partnership with Ameresco. We think Bristol might be an interesting next stop for Netting Zeros when we get back on the road. More thoughts from SMEs like Spaceforge Aerosystems Pvt Ltd., FLIMAX Ltd, BX, OceanMind coming in the podcast very soon so please stay tuned!

Spot on and timely! Last week at #InnovationZero24 a very interesting panel was held on the role of #CorporateVentureCapital in #climatetech with Emerald Technology Ventures' Gina Domanig, ArcelorMittal's Irina Gorbounova and Aramco Ventures' Hans Middelthon, moderated by Aimava Ltd's Andrew Gaule. This is a topic of huge practical relevance, and the tech ecosystem needs to deepen its understanding of this type of partnership. As a private technology investor and advisor, I often get asked by tech entrepreneurs about the potential impact a corporate venture capital investor can have on their business, especially on strategy (“Does it box us in?”), commercials (“Will they be a customer? Will others in the same industry still want to buy from us?”), and exit options (“If they like the company, will they prevent a sale to others? If they don’t buy the company, does it send a mixed signal to the market?”). The answer on these is "it depends", I have seen both the good and the not so good side of it. I'd be curious to hear from others - what is your experience with Corporate VC in tech companies? #corporateventurecapital #venturecapital #growthequity
