OM DENNE EPISODE
What 2025 will bring for climate tech is pretty hard to predict. We’ve seen a slowdown in investments at the same time as we see a continued flood of talent into the space, maturing technologies, and a boom in AI that could be transformative for climate solutions. The new administration? Nobody really knows how they’ll orient around climate tech, or how private investors will respond.
There’s a lot of uncertainty, but of course, pros who have been in this game for decades and who study early-stage climate technology closely have some ideas of where we’re headed. So I was thrilled to get to catch up with Andrew Beebe, Managing Director of Obvious Ventures. We spoke about Andrew’s background as an entrepreneur and the parallels he sees between the Internet's and climate tech's early days. We talked about where climate tech is today, 5 predictions he has for 2025, generative science, technologies he’s most excited about, what needs to change to address the climate crisis, and more. Andrew brings the nuance and clarity of someone who’s been working closely with energy and climate entrepreneurs every day for a long time. We didn’t solve all the mysteries of what this year will bring, but I think Andrew shared some great food for thought and real opportunities.
