Inside the Innovation Huddle | Climate Change

Written by Vanessa Rosado | Apr 6, 2022 9:34:23 PM

Every week our team does an internal huddle where we share the most disruptive and interesting startups and emerging technologies from around the world. The only rule, is that they can’t directly solve a current client challenge. This way we retain our super-power of spotting creative adjacencies and disruptive outer-horizon solutions. Below we share a selection of those startups and technologies with you. 

This month we took a look at startups targeting climate change.  Check out our list below!

  • Running Tide - Running Tide 🌊 is putting carbon back where it belongs by growing biomass and sinking it in the deep ocean. 
  • AMP Robotics - AMP Robotics 🤖is enabling a world without waste 🗑️ through artificial intelligence ♻️. 
  • Nth Cycle - Nth Cycle draws the resources needed for the energy 🔋 transition from electronics 💻 waste and more efficient mines. 
  • AIR COMPANY- AIR ☁️ COMPANY invented a carbon conversion technology ⚗️ that transforms carbon dioxide (CO2) into impurity-free alcohols that they turn into consumer 👫 goods from perfume to hand sanitizer and vodka🍸. Commercial applications like jet ✈️ fuel are on the horizon.
  • CLEAN 02- CLEAN 🛀🏽 02 is capturing carbon and converting it into soap.   
  • climeworks - Climeworks offers individuals and organizations monthly subscriptions to take climate-positive action by sponsoring the permanent removal of excess and legacy carbon dioxide emissions via 'direct air capture.'
