Global Impact: 8.1 million deaths / year Air pollution is a pressing global issue with severe health consequences. According to the fifth edition of the State of Global Air (SoGA) report, air pollution accounted for 8.1 million deaths globally in 2021. This staggering toll makes air pollution the second leading risk factor for death worldwide, following malnutrition. Let’s delve into the details: Global Impact: 8.1 million deaths: This number represents more than one in eight deaths worldwide. 90% of deaths related to air pollution are attributed to PM2.5 (fine particulate matter) and household air pollution. PM2.5 particles, measuring less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter, can enter the bloodstream and affect various organ systems, leading to diseases like heart disease, stroke, diabetes, lung cancer, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Children at Risk: Children under five years old are especially vulnerable to air pollution. In 2021, exposure to air pollution was linked to more than 700,000 deaths in this age group, making it the second-leading risk factor for death globally after malnutrition. 500,000 child deaths were linked to household air pollution, primarily due to indoor cooking with polluting fuels in Africa and Asia. Global Health Concern: Nearly every person on Earth breathes unhealthy levels of air pollution daily. Urgent action is needed to control pollution and prevent pollution-related diseases, with a focus on air pollution and lead poisoning. A global response is essential because pollution transcends local boundaries and affects us all. Remember, addressing air pollution requires concerted efforts at both local and global levels. Let’s continue raising awareness and advocating for cleaner air to protect our health and the planet! #fineparticles #pollution #publichealth #leadpoisoning #cleanair #infantmortality Verel Rodrigues Benoît Larrouturou Paola Ieger Gaeski Victor van der Kooij Astrid Alejandra Salazar Degollado Alana Mullings Eva Fagerlund Susanna Hasenoehrl Ivana López Andrada Maier Tatiana der Avedissian Lyn Harris Leo Guyshan Jim LESCOP Ingmar Rentzhog Hervé Da Costa - Create Your Success  Cláudia Simões da Rocha Claudia Pabon Pereira, PhD Annie Krekeler Ann Bayliss Arthur Keller Yasmine Gatt Anusha Badhwar, CFA Jean-François MERCIER 🌍🦊⏚ Katherine Kroll Katherine Howells Virginie Votier Charlotte King, MS Sustainability Anton Theunynck Stephanie Raymond Naomi Sheehan Gabriel Malek Arthur Auboeuf Timothée Parrique Erin Remblance Virginie De Visscher Biliana Vassileva Aquayemi-Claude Garnett Akinsanya Sam Belle Étoile Environnement Ahcene MOULLA https://lnkd.in/eu_GdE6Z

Excited news: Reforest'Action enters the blisce/technology’s portfolio with a €20m financing! 🌳🚀 Did you know that more than 50% of the world's GDP is heavily dependent on nature and the services it provides (PwC, World Economic Forum)? To contribute to the Paris Agreement's +2°C target, the world must mobilize $6,000 bn by 2050 to finance reforestation and agroforestry (UNEP-WCMC, 2022). Well, Stéphane Hallaire's company understood that long ago and has been investing in the development of a comprehensive impact monitoring tool to effectively measure and further maximize their impact. Today, the global leader in hashtag #reforestation and hashtag #agroforestry since 2010 is moving a step further in its efforts by partnering with blisce/ and Eiffel Investment Group. This aims to: 📲 Digitalize and enhance the comprehensive information and hashtag #data analysis system, as well as key performance indicators. 🌍 Accelerate the development of large-scale high-quality certified projects of natural ecosystem restoration. 🐒 Put the emphasis on their impact on the climate as well as biodiversity, soil-water systems, and communities. Together, we are committed to protecting Reforest'Action's truly inspiring mission and supporting innovative solutions that address pressing global environmental issues toward a more sustainable future.

"AI is statistics on steroids!" 📰 Laurent Daudet co-Founder and co-CEO of LightOn was interviewed in french economic newspaper Les Echos Entrepreneurs Gen AI serves as a catalyst for enterprise transformation by enabling the automation of internal workflows. LightOn's Paradigm platform empowers non technical people to independently build and deploy agents to implement and streamline their daily tasks, significantly reducing workload and enhancing efficiency. By managing Large Language Models on premise, Paradigm supports enterprises throughout this transformative journey. 🎙️ Laurent illustrated how Paradigm revolutionizes its customers daily tasks: "There are many applications, such as being able to query documentary databases in natural language. For example, we have set up an IT support chatbot for all agents of the Région Ile de France Council. Our model responds to requests by indicating the procedure to follow and quoting its sources, which limits the risk of hallucination." #Paradigm #GenAI #LLM #AI

🌍 Focus on two HEC Paris startups that use plants and satellites to promote sustainability ☀ In the special issue "Aligning Business with Planetary Boundaries," Knowledge@HEC interviewed the founders of two remarkable startups from HEC’s incubator at Station F: Fabien Koutchekian CEO at Genomines and Richard Barre, CEO at Pixstart, who are developing green innovations with a deep impact in their respective sectors. Genomines utilizes plants to selectively extract targeted metals, crucial for battery production, aiming to minimize environmental impact. Pixstart offers tailored satellite imagery analysis to monitor changes in water, forests, agricultural fields, and construction sites, optimizing environmental resource management and informing decisions. 3 Key takeaways: 🔹Sustainable Innovation: Both Genomines (plant-based metal extraction) and Pixstart (environmental monitoring with satellites) prioritize sustainability in their approaches. 🔹Environmental Impact Focus: Reducing environmental impact is a core principle for both Genomines and Pixstart, with Genomines aiming to minimize mining's footprint and Pixstart promoting resource optimization. 🔹Social Responsibility: Genomines works with NGOs to bring social benefits alongside business development, while Pixstart fosters a diverse team and considers the social impact of their technology. 🌟 This is an opportunity for us to congratulate them for their great success and transformative journey. These talented entrepreneurs and members of the HEC community bring sustainable solutions through their skills and dedication. ➡️ Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/dbPRk-Dk With Inge Kerkloh-Devif, Antoine Lepretre, Thiago Penteado, Incubateur HEC Paris, HEC Paris - Innovation & Entrepreneurship Institute, Céline Bonnet-Laquitaine, Daniel Brown, Fernando Diaz Lopez, Ph.D., Daniel Halbheer #Sustainability #PositiveChange #HECFoundation #HECParis #Research #Education #Impact #HECknowledge

ICMIF member MAIF (France) has announced it is strengthening its #responsibleinvestment policy with the adoption of two new strategies: a biodiversity component to complement its climate strategy and reinforce its action to support nature, and a social component to reflect the MAIF Group’s policy in favour of inclusion and equal opportunities. Thanks to MAIF’s belief that the climate crisis and the erosion of biodiversity cannot be resolved separately, the mutual insurer has chosen to commit to a strategy supporting nature with the dual aim of contributing to the goal of carbon neutrality and acting to preserve biodiversity. MAIF says it is implementing actions including exclusion, investment selection and dialogue with its stakeholders. From 2024, it will exclude the activities that are most harmful to biodiversity from its investments (direct management and dedicated funds). In line with the MAIF Group’s social policy, the social strategy will aim to contribute to greater inclusion and support equal opportunities. Carole Zacchéo, Investment Director, MAIF said: “By making ambitious commitments to the climate, biodiversity and social issues in its investment strategy, MAIF has taken a new step forward in its role as a responsible investor. We are convinced that contributing to the common good by investing in nature and people is also the way to guarantee the long-term security and profitability of the financial investments and savings entrusted to us by our members.” #SustainableInvestments #Investing #Mutuals #Insurance #Mutuality #Resilience #Biodiversity #SocialInclusion Stéphane Tisserand Pascal Demurger

There a fewer and fewer public companies.  They were +8000 in the US in 1996 and are now only 4642.  That’s down 43%. How did this happened? You can explain this in many ways :  The regulation makes it increasingly difficult for a company to IPO VC & PE have be on the rise for the last decade Acquisitions are also on the rise. To give you a snapshot : 870 publics companies were acquired by one of the magnificient seven (google, apple, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, Tesla and Nvidia) And what’s the consequence? More and more companies, facing difficulties by IPO are drawn to VC & PE were there are more and more investors. Even though the private market lack transparency and available data, VC and PE firms have been working on tools to obtain data in ordre to make better investment décision. It’s the case for Earlybird or EQT Ventures. And also a lot of start-ups that are now working to create tools to help VC in their decision making process. So now the question is : will private markets one day have a sufficient data level for investors to make as informed decision as they would in public markets ? On my side I truly believe that in the upcoming years, we'll see the first quants VC. If you want to read some more : https://lnkd.in/eKFZuyeE

At LCP, we're always at the forefront of innovations that shape the future of energy retail. The latest advancements in AI are set to revolutionize the sector, and we're diving deep into the possibilities! Check out this article by my colleague Arthur Pereira shedding light on the difference between predivtive (classical) and generative AI : https://lnkd.in/ermD3FtB Let's take the example of AI in a Google Nest thermostat. It takes into account user behavior, public weather forecast data, and its own historical data on how quickly the building has heated or cooled during previous cycles. It then triggers heating just in time to meet the user's comfort needs while minimizing costs. The learning process is continuous and improves over time as more data is added. Yet, the data remains fundamentally structured and predictable. Generative AI, on the other hand, operates by learning from vast amounts of data, which can come in the form of texts, images, music, etc. Once this learning phase is complete, it can generate new data that mimics what it has learned. #AI #EnergyRetail #Innovation #Sustainability

Some conversations are best had in a space capsule. 🚀 (check the beginning of the video...) Neil Tan 🌐 I like your digs—and our chat. Fittingly, we covered the highs and lows of building rocketship companies, why tokenization enables the next generation market infrastructure for alternative assets, and the hard-earned lesson that the best startups operate like high-performance sports teams, not cozy families. #podcast #alternativeinvestments #assetmanagement #tokenization EVIDENT
