Join us for the Japan Society of Northern California event hosted at our Venture Lab Silicon Valley office next Monday 3/4 from 3pm-6pm. 🌍 Together Towards a Greener Future! 🌱 In March 2022, a Memorandum of Cooperation (MOC) was signed between the two governments. This MOC covers climate change, trade and investment, renewable energy, energy storage, and business exchange, including: zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs), high-speed rail (HSR), public transportation, and water conservation and management. Following this MOC, in March 2023, Lt. Governor Kounalakis conducted a large scale of trade missions to Japan. As another year has passed since then, this seminar is being held to commemorate these achievements and strengthen the momentum of cooperation between Japan and California. Please join us for a program that will bring together Japanese ClimateTech/Energy multinational corporations and ClimateTech start-ups. In this exciting reverse pitch session, large Japanese manufacturers will take the stage to share what kinds of technologies and startup partners they are eager to seek, present collaborative use cases, discuss the challenges they are facing, and more! Several innovative start-ups will also present their pitches and discuss collaboration cases within Japanese companies. To close the session, several VCs will evaluate the latest ClimateTech trends and discuss how to enhance open innovation between large corporations and start-ups during a panel discussion.

🌍 Exciting News!📣 Cleantech for Nordics - the Breakthrough Energy backed coalition which we in PSV DeepTech is a part of - proudly presents our manifesto for the 2024 #EUelections, urging political candidates to champion EU's climate leadership! 🌱 With climate being part of our investment focus it is natural for PSV DeepTech to push this agenda. With the EU elections on the horizon, Cleantech for Nordics emphasizes the urgency of prioritizing #cleantech innovation and growth, highlighting its pivotal role in job creation, economic growth, and tackling climate change. We urge #policymakers to make cleantech a top priority in this election movement and boldly lead this industrial transition. We invite aspiring EU candidates from the Nordics to join us and pledge their support for this vision, and would like to highlight three key areas of focus: 1️⃣ Fostering a Robust Cleantech Ecosystem. The Nordics boasts a strong cleantech landscape with companies attracting significant investment and contributing to our economy. To scale this sector, additional funding is imperative and we need an active EU cleantech investment strategy. Not only will this help us in tackling climate change, it will also foster job growth and boost export revenues.💸📈 2️⃣ The EU Common Market Drives Cleantech Growth. The EU common market serves as a crucial platform for Nordic cleantech companies to expand globally. With strong EU leadership, the EU can be the world’s best growth market for cleantech fostering innovation and growth across the region. 🌍💡 3️⃣ Clear, Predictable, and Harmonized Policies. Long-term stability is essential for guiding investors and industry effectively. Let’s ensure clear, predictable, and harmonized policies to drive the cleantech transition. 📜🔍 Join us in shaping the future of Europe and paving the way to a sustainable future!🚀🌿 #DeepTech #Climate #Nordics #EU #PSVDeepTech Breakthrough Energy Julia Reinaud Mariano Berkenwald Markus Hökfelt Anna Lundin Veronica Wänman Peter Hirsch Carin Elisabeth Breitholtz Eivind Olsen Jan-Olaf Willums Fredrika Svanholm Tuomas Oksanen Jussi Teijonsalo Henri Isohanni Niko Elers Ben Murphy Helga Valfells Marianne Hyltoft Jakob Rybak-Andersen Agnethe Leonora Hjarnø Boysen Søren Jessen Nielsen Jacob Graves Beck

👉 Innovation for a Sustainable Future: EU Pioneers Perfect Solar Cells with Austrian Support 🌍💡 Europe is ramping up its efforts in photovoltaic production to stay competitive on the global stage, particularly against Asia. By incorporating innovative technologies and pioneering new materials in production, Europe is on the path to developing solar cells that are not just efficient but also remarkably thin and lightweight. 🔍🔧 The "Platform Zero" project is a testament to this initiative. This collaborative effort, involving 11 leading European research and industrial partners, is set to transform solar production through advanced technologies and "zero-defect production". In Austria, contributions come from the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology and RISC Software GmbH , with a pilot plant to be put into operation at the Tyrolean startup, Sunplugged . 👇 derStandard reported on this (in German): https://lnkd.in/dHJBEFZZ 👉platform-zero-project.eu #RenewableEnergy #Innovation #SustainableFuture #PhotovoltaicProduction #zerodefectproduction #high-performancevision #inlineinspection #qualityinspection #CenterVisionAutomationControl Laurin Ginner Nicole Brosch

BBVA co-hosts the Energy Tech Summit, Europe’s #1 event in energy tech innovations and investment. The fifth edition of the event is set to take place in Bilbao, Spain on April 10-11, 2024. Climate technologies have advanced rapidly. However, there is a gap between technical readiness and commercial maturity. So far today, only 10 percent of climate technologies are commercially competitive, while a further 45 percent are commercially available but will require further cost reductions through innovation and scale-up to become competitive. BBVA and Contrarian Ventures will gather investors, companies that operate in the climate tech space that face significant financing challenges to scale, and industrial corporations who needs to adopt those innovative technologies to decarbonize their production processes. Hope to see you all in Bilbao, Spain. You can get a 30% discount with the code 💥 BBVAPARTNER 💥

🌱🚀 Exciting Insights into the Nordic Cleantech Investment Landscape! 🌟 Last year, Net Zero Ventures joined Cleantech Scandinavia to strengthen our presence in this Northern European ecosystem, ensuring we stay close to the latest trends and most promising scale-up opportunities in #climatech companies in the region. Cleantech for Nordics, a partnership between Cleantech Scandinavia and Breakthrough Energy, has recently released its quarterly brief, providing a comprehensive analysis of 2023. Here are some key highlights: ✍️ In 2023, cleantech investments in the #Nordics hit a record-breaking 6,120 million EUR across 390 deals 📈, driven by key players like Northvolt and H2 Green Steel, which collectively accounted for over half of the total investments. ✍️ Despite increased deal activity, particularly in early-stage ventures, several sectors experienced a decline in funding compared to previous years, characterized by a mix of mega and smaller deals. ✍️ Sweden continued to lead in investment activity among its Nordic counterparts, capturing half of all deals and three quarters of the total invested amounts, and stands out as an outlier in the broader European investment landscape which has remained stagnant. ✍️ While the cleantech landscape shows positive growth, there is a clear need for more capital to scale solutions, possibly requiring alternative financing beyond venture capital. The bankruptcy of the two Swedish scale-ups, Volta and Cake, despite significant funding and proven technologies, highlighting this necessity. We are confident that our domestic Spanish climatech market, which has experienced significant growth in recent years 💪, can benefit from the lessons learned and challenges overcome by the more mature Nordic ecosystem. 💡 Congratulations Cleantech for Nordics, Cleantech Scandinavia and Breakthrough Energy for this insightful report!🌍👏 #Cleantech #Sustainability #NetZeroVentures #VentureCapital
