Session: From Code to Capital: How Women Can Shape the Future of Climate Tech and Emerging Technologies
Technology is shaping the future of our planet—but women remain underrepresented in the rooms where capital, strategy, and long-term decisions are made.
In this fireside chat, we explore how women can move beyond participation to real influence in climate tech and emerging technologies. Drawing from hands-on experience at the intersection of technology, investment, and sustainability, this session will unpack how ideas move from innovation to impact—and how women can position themselves to lead that journey.
The conversation will cover career pivots into climate and deep tech, navigating power structures in male-dominated spaces, and why diverse leadership is not just a moral imperative but a strategic advantage in building resilient, future-facing technologies.
This session is designed to be candid, practical, and inspiring—offering real-world insights rather than abstract theory.
