Solving Climate Tech’s Growth-Stage Funding Gap

​Join World Fund on Tuesday, January 27, for an afternoon exploring one of the most urgent challenges in European innovation: the Series B funding gap in climate tech.

​At Series B, Europe risks losing its most promising climate tech companies as capital demand outpaces available European supply.

​This event will explore the data behind the funding bottleneck, regional disparities, and the market dynamics driving Europe’s dependence on foreign capital. Together, we’ll discuss what it will take to strengthen Europe’s growth-stage investment capacity and the policy, financial, and capital-mobilisation reforms needed to turn Europe from a startup factory into a scaleup powerhouse in climate and resilience tech.

​Featured speakers and panelists will include:

• ​Jacqueline van den Ende, Carbon Equity

• ​Adnan Oner, Farmless

• ​Nina Chaloum, Dealroom

• ​​Craig Douglas, World Fund

​The evening will close with a networking reception, providing space for connection, collaboration and new partnerships across the climate tech ecosystem.

​Date: January 27, 2026

​​Time: 4:30 PM

​​Location: Fosbury & Sons, Prinsengracht 769, Amsterdam

​Attendance is by invitation only: kindly RSVP to confirm your participation or nominate a colleague.

​We look forward to hosting you!
