Learn from over 50 experts
Learn from over 50 experts
  • Learn from and connect with founders, researchers, investors, and subject-matter experts who are developing and scaling real-world applications of climate solutions.

  • Ask questions and expand your knowledge during interactive fireside chats, deep-dive discussions, and expert panels.

  • Build connections with leaders and team members of top climate companies, startups, and nonprofits, and get an inside look at what it’s like to work at these organizations.

“All the guests for panels, deep dives and keynotes were great. They were also all very direct and honest which I appreciated. You got the sense they were talking to a group of insiders vs at something like a conference. Organization was great. Lots of reminders about sessions, clear who was speaking and about what. Enough lead time to plan my weeks around it as best I could.”Mike G, Cohort 2 Fellow

Work on projects
  • Have the opportunity to pitch ideas, form teams, and get feedback from the community to launch self-directed projects and products that bring your knowledge to life.

  • Previous Fellows have launched media-based projects, in-depth research reports, and early-stage startups — some of which have gone on to attract investors.

  • Fellows gain priority consideration to present their projects and companies at our annual online Climatebase Demo Day.

“There are plenty of folks I met who I expect to be collaborating with and hanging out with in the future. If you're looking to double down on working on climate, I highly recommend joining a future cohort.”Weldon K, Cohort 2 Fellow

I loved pretty much everything. I especially liked the small breakout rooms peppered throughout everything. It was shocking how many people I met in week one just that way.
