The clean tech of the future

See highlights from our Clean Tech Stars conference, which brought together 30 of the most exciting, successful, high-growth companies helping to make net zero happen.

AUDIO DESCRIPTION

James Janoskey: What do we mean by Clean Tech Stars? To us, these are the companies that are leading to find solutions and technologies that are required for the world to address our net-zero commitment by 2050. That these companies are the ones that are purely focused on finding solutions through new technologies, new capabilities, new partnerships to address this challenge.

Karl Atenburg: To master the challenge and to get these companies to industrial scale and these clean tech solutions to an industrial operating efficiency, we need a lot of capital. So banks and capital markets are obviously crucial to help raise that capital.

Chuka Umunna: We've brought together 30 of the most exciting, most successful high-growth companies across the different green economy verticals who’ve raised around $7 billion in aggregate over the last few years. Our role here is very important here as a bank because they won’t be able to do what they need to do without raising the finance necessary and we’re committed to financing and facilitating $2.5 trillion to delivery against the UN’s sustainable development to 2030, with a trillion of that focused on the green economy.

Sydney Locksley: So, when we think about the importance of green and sustainable financing, not all financial instruments fall under this green label, but the really rapid growth in green investing, such as in green bonds or in SLBs, demonstrates an appetite to shift capital towards clean investment. And with support for additional clean and sustainable investment, we can reorient cashflows towards clean investments and have this reciprocal benefit bode for investors as well as for the clean energy companies that require this intensive capital inflow to scale and grow the businesses.

Alberto Piana: This is not a slogan anymore. The carbonization net zero company really have to take action and they are taking action. And there’s a reality: all the company who’re here today with us are enabling the transformation to happen. So that’s why it’s so important that we identify company that would be the future leader in this transition towards the net zero and the carbonization economy.
