​A Climate Tech Pitch Night with seven Swiss startups, opened by a Bay Area panel on how green innovative solutions really are

​This Halloween week, Swissnex in San Francisco invites you to a Pitch Night with a hauntingly good lineup: seven Swiss climate tech startups, showcased as the highlight of a two-week Startup Camp powered by Innosuisse.

​But first, forget the scary questions. Let’s ask the exciting ones. How can climate tech create real, measurable impact? And what will it take to accelerate the solutions that work? With the green premium fading and investors looking for more than a “clean” label, a panel of Bay Area climate experts will map out where the biggest opportunities lie and how founders can seize them. Then the panelists trade their seats for the jury table to pick the night’s winning pitch.

​We close with drinks and networking at 9zero, San Francisco’s climate innovation hub.

​Costumes are encouraged. Bonus points for thrifted or upcycled looks.

​The Startups pitching: Ageospatial, apheros, RTDT, REOR20, SolidWatts, Vivent Biosignals, vyzn

​Who it’s for: founders, investors, corporate innovation and sustainability teams, researchers, and anyone curious about where climate tech is headed and what Switzerland brings to it.

​What to expect: a candid panel, seven sharp pitches, and drinks and networking with the Bay Area climate community.
