[Open Climate] How to Unlock Climate Grants, Foundation Money, and Catalytic Capital

​If you’ve been around Climate Drift, you know we don’t mythologize VC or romanticize bootstrapping. We focus on the real bottlenecks—the ones that decide whether a climate solution gets built, piloted, or quietly dies in a Google Drive folder.

​Here’s one too many founders stumble on:

​🏛️ Foundations move billions—but their funding still feels like a black box.
🧾 Grants are a maze of forms, timelines, and eligibility traps.
💸 And catalytic capital sounds promising… until it’s time to structure the deal.

​This session is for anyone trying to raise non-dilutive funding for climate—whether from foundations, public programs, or catalytic-first investors. We’ll unpack how the best in the field are securing and stacking this money to move faster and scale smarter.

​🛠️ Tactical breakdowns of successful grant + foundation strategies
💬 Real stories of what got funded (and why)
📞 Live office hours so you can ask the questions you can’t Google

​Climate funding is out there—but only if you know how to work the system.
