​Join Node, Cambridge Consultants, IFM Investors, and Microsoft for an exclusive working session during SF Climate Week with 30 exec-level leaders representing growth stage climate companies, capital providers, and FOAK ecosystem enablers.

​​​Discussion Groups:

• ​​​Key Factors: Understand the critical techno-commercial readiness factors start-ups face when approaching the “missing middle" and how players like Cambridge Consultants can support such start-ups.

• ​​Capital Formation: Understand what role credit and private capital from players such as IFM Investors can play in developing FOAK and NOAK projects, and in supporting start-ups developing these projects.

• ​​Corporate Offtakes: How corporate venture capital accelerates market scale and the role of Microsoft’s Climate Innovation Fund in building markets for low-carbon materials and fuels.

​Heavy hors d'oeuvres and drinks will be served.
