Upcoming Power Hour | Building and Funding Energy Tech: What Founders Need to Know

​In this Power Hour, Alex Gras and Chuck Yates sit down for a discussion on what it takes to build and fund energy tech companies today. They cover the math behind venture capital versus private equity, why AI-native startups in oil and gas need to act as service providers before pushing a software product, and how to get traction when your buyers are conservative and your sales cycles are long.

​They also get into the real barriers to AI adoption in legacy industries, what operators actually need to see before they change how they work, and why the founders who are winning right now are the ones willing to get their hands dirty before they scale.
