Founders & Funders of the Physical Economy - A NYCW Happy Hour with Maniv & Dynamo
Join Maniv, Dynamo, Stifel, and CSC Leasing for an informal Climate Week happy hour bringing together investors, founders, and operators working across climate and the physical economy.
There’s no agenda or formal programming - just food, drinks, and a room full of people building, funding, and thinking deeply about the technologies reshaping industry, infrastructure, energy, and the built world.
