Creating the Future, with Deep Science Ventures

​How do you cut through the massive complexity and interrelated forces driving climate change? And how do you deal with the added layers of public policy, perception and commercialisation, boiling this vast universe of possibilities down into a handful of companies that could actually move the needle?

​At this event, we’ll share three of the “angles of attack” we’re using to tackle climate change, and the strategies behind them for narrowing a seemingly infinite solution space into high-impact ventures:

• ​Toxicity: Phasing out harmful chemistries and materials, and designing safe-by-default replacements.

• ​Adaptation & Catastrophic Risk: Building resilience technologies for heat, water, biosecurity and grid stability.

• ​Decarbonising Legacy Industries: Deploying interventions that scale within today’s asset base and global value chains.

​Agenda

​14:00-14:10 I Guests arrive

​14:10 - 14:15 I Welcome and Intro to DSV by Dom, Founding Director at DSV

​15:30 - 16:00 I Networking

​Join us to be challenged and to challenge us: do we already have all the technology we need and just need to let the best ideas rise, or do we need to be far more proactive in driving new solutions into the areas where they’re currently missing?

​There’ll be plenty of time to network with founders, VCs and corporates, as well as many of the DSV team. We look forward to seeing you there!
