#210 Our NYCW 2024 Hot Takes 🔥


Listen Later

And... don't forget to fill out the post climate week survey! đź“ť

NYCW 2024 was a DOOZY…filled with plenty of good and crazy times that we equally don’t really remember. It went by in a blur, but so much happened in the week that we need to break it down with all you CleanTechies out there.

Listen to the ep to hear about:

  • What events we liked — Third Sphere, Political Risk Event, Climate Capital Summit, New Climate Futures 
  • The events we didn’t like — VC hangouts & loud bar meetups 
  • Our biggest takeaways — There needs to be better collaboration across events; and the UNGA & NYCW are competing for the best climate talent
  • Our biggest gripes — Too much posturing and getting stuck in echo chambers; too much noise — not enough signal 
  • What we are going to do differently next year — hosting more of our own events / attending fewer ones & finding places where the real debates are happening 
  • Our hot takes 🔥:
    • FOAK financing isn’t real
    • Dealflow isn’t an alpha for VCs anymore
    • Startups need to pursue generating PE-quality returns to succeed 

👉 AND…last but not least, stay tuned to hear the recording of our first live podcast (coming later this week)…👀

👉 If you’ve made it this far, you must really be interested in a better NYCW experience…fill out the post-Climate Week survey
