At Rahim Invest FO 🇨🇭 we are thrilled to highlight the unprecedented growth and investment in climate tech across Europe during the first half of 2024. According to Sifted climate tech in Europe received more investment than any other tech sector, securing €7.7 billion in equity and €13.2 billion in debt. Meanwhile, Statista reports that despite a global decline since its peak in Q3 2021, the USA’s climate tech venture capital investment reached $11.3 billion in the first six months of 2024.

The Canadian government’s 2024 budget released Tuesday included a proposal to increase the capital gains inclusion rate We weren’t going to write about this (we had a ton of funny jokes instead), but we received several notes from cleantech founders saying this would be a severe deterrent to cleantech growth in Canada. Cleantech remains one of the fastest-growing venture categories globally. This means the decisions on where companies are built are happening now, vs more mature sectors or where growth has slowed. The policy changes countries make today will impact which countries are leaders in cleantech. Canada talks about being a leader, but this is the latest in a string of decisions that will make it more challenging to build tech companies here vs. the US and the UK. Take a look at our newsletter in comments to get a breakdown of the details and what we believe the excepted impacts are, from hiring delays to new business formation.

Following the release of the new Canadian budget, Emissions Decisions highlights the major implications that are bad for business & investment, particularly if you're in cleantech or software.
