Climate Connect: Speed Networking & Fika with XPRIZE
Let’s fast-forward the future we want to see.
XPRIZE invites you to an event of rapid-fire connections with bold climatetech founders from the XPRIZE community.
In the first hour, we'll kick off with fast-paced rotating 1:1 chats (5 minutes each) to spark real connections. We’ll then ease into open mingling to dive deeper with the changemakers building tomorrow’s sustainable solutions.
No panels, no pitches—it’s a chance to connect, human to human, with the thinkers and doers of climatetech. Just real talk, real people, and real potential.
