A new wave of investors and project developers is scaling up the sustainable infrastructure and climate-tech investing market. In the US, significant federal capital commitments to de-risk the market through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act have enticed investors to pay attention. With more than 30 percent of the world’s largest public companies targeting net zero, new solutions must be capitalized. This session will highlight firms and investors generating top-flight returns and growing rapidly towards $500M+, fueled by the smart deployment of existing and new tech along with public- and private-sector demand for a resilient and disaster-proof built environment.
