NYCW 2026: Fundraising for Climate Hardware and Deeptech

​Context: A half-day fundraising workshop built specifically for hardware and durable-asset climate startups. Bringing together the founders, CFOs, and operators navigating the complex stack of equity, project finance, and building the bridge in between.
