Pando

We were able to help introduce Anna and Pando member, Tom at our Green Business event in May at Kiln, and we love seeing how their respective businesses are helping each other now! What are some of the favorite connections you have made at a Pando event? #entrepreneurship #networking #connection #parkcity #community #kiln

Still marveling over the power that collective action generates to address the impacts of climate change. Last week over 250 investors, clean energy entrepreneurs, and climate activists came out to Park City for the inaugural #Progression2024 Conference. In partnership with Protect Our Winters, the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team, and the Rocky Mountain Venture Capital Association - this event highlighted some of the country's leading voices working to address the energy transition and climate change. 📣 Big shoutout to the founder of Progression, Ryan Bellissimo who had the vision to pull this event together after more than a year of planning, along with my fellow Progression committee members who helped secure sponsors and curate a group of clean energy entrepreneurs actively fundraising in the cleantech and clean energy transition that align with the mission and work of Protect Our Winters. ♻ Thanks to all the wonderful speakers who shared their respective journeys on leaning into addressing climate change as mountaineers, founders, climate policy activists, including our keynote speaker Amie Engerbretson, followed up by my friend and venture investor Erik Snyder from Drawdown Fund, Managed by Tiger Grass Capital. 💥 Presentations by six leading innovators in the clean energy transition including: Joule Case, Zero Homes, Frontline Wildfire Defense, AlphaTech Research Corp, Harbinger, and MacroCycle Technologies. 💡 It was fun to moderate an engaging panel discussion on the Future of Clean Energy Investing that included: Jam Attari, Kirsten Suddath, and Tom Georgis where we discussed the current tailwinds and headwinds in the clean energy transition, the evolution of the capital stack in the clean energy sector, and the most exciting areas for investors. 🤝 Thanks to Willie Ford for serving as our MC for the day and keeping us all on track with the events programming, capped off by a captivating presentation by U.S. Senate Candidate (D-UT) Caroline Gleich. Nothing better than closing the event with an outdoor dinner in the mountains sponsored by High West Distillery, Founders N' Funders, Forecastr, and Pando as we all had a chance to reflect on the day's programming and make connections to support our collective efforts to address climate change. Onward 🚀
