Kudos to Ventech for highlighting Elementric, the new generation of #WaterTech champions identified by AFI Ventures. Elementric is on its way to a widespread adoption of its solution with wirelessly connected leak sensors designed for large-scale rollout and monitoring of an entire property portfolio. More insurance companies and property owners are realizing the economic benefits of our solution.

Since there is currently speculation about whether the "Valley of Death" for European climate tech startups even exists (the investment gap in Series B): unfortunately it does, the data is clear. 📊 The numbers are based on the most extensive database about European climate tech companies (i3 Connect; part of the Cleantech Group).

One year ago, the World Economic Forum spun off the Global Impact Coalition (GIC). Based on the core Forum principle of collective action, GIC has continued to advance its important mission to reduce carbon emissions and advance circularity in the chemical industry. To mark this occasion, our President Børge Brende sat down with Charlie Tan, for an insightful discussion. At the Forum, we are proud to have incubated another significant CEO-led platform and look forward to its continued growth and success, as it makes its mark on the chemicals industry's value chains and on the energy and materials transition. #ChemicalIndustry #WEF #CircularEconomy #CEO #NetZero #energy #materials https://lnkd.in/ebiuwRbG
