Climate fintech

What is climate fintech and why do VCs love it so much?

More and more fintech investors are looking for climate-related investments - and more climate-focused VC firms are also looking into this intersection. In the first six months of 2022, startups that sit at the intersection of climate, finance and tech have raised $1.8bn globally - already 1.5x the total for all of 2021, according to data from VC firm CommerzVentures.
