There's never been a better time to be a climate tech entrepreneur. Over the course of 2021, more than 70 new climate-dedicated investment funds were set up to deploy $35B+ to climate tech solutions.
In this episode, co-hosts Thomas Obermeier and Nick Van Hollen sit down with Wharton grad Amy Duffuor, Managing Director at Prime Impact Fund and General Partner at Azolla Ventures, to learn about Prime Impact Fund’s pioneering investment model, the evolving role of “catalytic capital”, and investment opportunities with gigaton-scale climate impact. They also discuss Amy’s journey from Wharton to Prime and keys to success for MBA students looking to attract early-stage funding for their own ventures or make a career transition into climate investing.
