Climate Tech Fellowship Showcase: Celebrating the Cohort & Collaborating for Impact

Описание: Launched in September 2025 as The Exchange’s first signature incubation program, the Climate Tech Fellowship supports bold, research-driven technologies and teams as they accelerate their early-stage commercialization journey, paving the way for more technologies to make real climate impact.

In this interactive closing convening, participants got an inside look at each of our eight Fellows’ six-month journey and the solutions they’re advancing across urban and coastal resilience, climate data, and energy and decarbonization. Fellows shared what they’ve built, what they’ve learned, and what’s next as they move their innovations from lab to market.

The event featured a fireside chat with Jesse Lou, CEO and Co-founder at Recursion Works, and a presentation from each Fellow.
