Climate resilience is the emerging frontier for investors. Thanks to breakthroughs in climate tech and new, emerging technologies, investors can back transformative ideas that also offer big returns. Heading into #SFClimateWeek, we're thinking about:  → Climate resilience as an investment in our collective future. → Creating systems that withstand and adapt to climate impacts AND foster economic growth.  → Investing in climate tech is an investment in the longevity of our planet. → Supporting climate tech is a strategic move for long-term stability and ROI. The Earth is a single system; our investments should reflect this interconnectedness. Cross-sector collaboration in food & ag, energy, mobility, and infrastructure will lead to breakthroughs that help build a resilient future.

Venture can—and should—play a powerful role in helping cities build a resilient future. Thanks to Smart City Expo USA for hosting yesterday’s "VC for a Future-Ready Century" panel, with Julie Samuels, founder of TechNYC, Leigh-Ann Buchanan, Esq., CEO of Miami-Dade Innovation Authority, La French Tech's Crystelle Desnoyer, and Pulse Fund founder Tenzin Seldon. Here are our takeaways on how venture capital is advancing innovations for sustainable urban environments: ✅Public-private partnerships are essential for climate technology implementation. Government catalytic capital is fundamental when de-risking entire sectors. "Without public dollars, the private companies we invest in cannot do the work." ✅At Pulse Fund, we evaluate climate investments through three key lenses: exceptional founding teams with implementation capability, commercial viability at scale, and vertical integration that demonstrates deep market understanding. ✅Strong governance and board oversight remain crucial elements for establishing investor confidence in emerging climate technologies. The Earth is a single system, and investment approaches must reflect this reality. It’s great to see others taking this same approach and focusing on cross-sector investment to drive the transformational change needed for a future-ready century. #ClimateInvesting #SmartCities #Sustainability #FutureReady #ClimateTech

When most people think about climate change, insurance isn't the first thing that comes to mind. Yet it is a critical component of both disaster recovery and climate mitigation. Thanks to Leslie Kaufman and Bloomberg for diving into how Floodbase is working with municipalities, like the City of Fremont, to bolster parametric flood insurance and improve community resilience. #Flood #Insurance #ClimateMitigation #ClimateTech #ClimateVC
