The timing couldn't be more critical. As we're seeing unprecedented EV adoption across Australia, the next major challenge isn't just about getting more EVs on the road – it's about reimagining the entire charging ecosystem. Every EV driver has a story about charging frustrations, and those stories are exactly what drives innovation at Ivygo. What excites us most about this recognition is how it reflects a broader shift in the industry: the focus is moving from "if" EVs will become mainstream to "how fast" we can build the infrastructure to support them. Climate Salad's spotlight on charging innovation shows that the market understands this is a critical piece of the sustainability puzzle. How do we make charging as intuitive as refuelling? How can we remove the friction that keeps people hesitant about switching to EVs? The answers to these questions will shape the future of transport in Australia. 💫⚡ #FutureOfMobility #EVInfrastructure #CleanTransport

Neutreeno, a deep tech startup spun out of the University of Cambridge, has raised $5 million in seed funding to revolutionize how enterprises manage emissions and costs across their supply chains. The round was led by Regeneration.VC, with participation from Remarkable Ventures Climate Fund (RVC), Closed Loop Partners, Prequel Ventures, Scania Invest, and Beacon Venture Capital. Founded by Dr. Spencer Brennan, Neutreeno's proprietary digital system is designed to reduce the data burden on suppliers, allowing companies to map and optimize their product lines faster and with more precision. By automatically identifying opportunities to lower emissions and costs across thousands of suppliers, Neutreeno is already serving S&P 500 and FTSE 250 companies, as well as SMEs, across Asia, Europe, and North America. With the fresh funding, Neutreeno plans to expand operations and continue development of its cutting-edge platform. Could precise, automated supply chain mapping be the key to dramatically reducing global emissions while cutting costs?

In Silicon Valley, they often say that “hardware is hard” due to the challenges of scaling ventures that require significant capital. The reality is even tougher: many innovations addressing our most urgent environmental challenges—renewable energy, battery storage, and efficient aviation—demand exactly these types of investments. So how do we fund them? This is where organizations like Newlab in NYC step in, supporting impact-driven startups that are “hardware heavy.” Public-private partnerships like these are more crucial than ever. A big thank you to Newlab for opening your doors, and to Clément De Alcala, David Hammer, and Nate Poon, PhD for sharing your groundbreaking ventures with us at IESE Business School. You’re solving important problems, and the world needs more of you! #Sustainableinnovation #cleantech #impactaccelerator

When we first dreamed of the "UNDER CONSTRUCTION" program a year and a half ago, we envisioned the booming construction scene in Tel Aviv, alongside the incredible commitment to sustainability in Germany. We saw an opportunity to build a bridge between Israeli innovation and Germany's dedication to a sustainable future. The past year has reshuffled the cards, with so many challenges, and transformations. But it's truly exciting to see how the need and the efforts have come together to create a platform that unites 9 innovative startups from Israel and Germany with the construction initiatives of 4 amazing communities in the Western Negev. These communities are piecing things together, working towards rebuilding their home in a better, more sustainable way. We thought about the critical need to connect sustainability with construction, and today, seeing this vision take shape, is nothing short of inspiring. We are building the future, one step at a time, together. #UnderConstruction #Sustainability #Innovation #Constructiontech #IsraelGermany #Rebuilding #FutureOfBuilding #StartupEcosystem #Negev #Collaboration #buildbackbetter #climatech

So proud of working with such aamzing founders. If you can’t measure it, you can’t change it. Pathways is pushing hard on decarbonising the building industry by automating the creation of material’s LCA and their Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) assestment. This is KEY to understand in real time the carbon footprint of construction projects and be able to take better decisions on how to act on it, both for suppliers and contractors. If you’re a material manufacturer, contact Pathways to understand how to improve your sustainability processes and boost your sales! Alex Cooper Leise Sandeman Vivin Hegde Juan N.
