The COVID19 pandemic has caused a global health crisis, but it has also presented unprecedented growth opportunities for bio-tech companies such as BioNTech and Moderna, who have successfully developed vaccines. The climate change crisis will also present opportunities for companies that are prepared.
Global climate venture companies like Opower in the U.S., a provider of big data for energy conservation, or like ClimateWorks in Switzerland, which converts carbon dioxide into solid carbon for sale, or like Rubicon, also in the U.S., which creates resource circulation platforms, are all experiencing rapid growth. Globally, climate tech investment funds have grown threefold in two years, reaching $ billion in 2021.
