Check out my latest article: A 2023 Retrospective. linkedin.com/pulse/2023-retr…
2024 has been a record-breaking year for @ClimateXLtd across all fronts. It's my privilege to serve my team, our clients and the industry as CEO. Here's my 2024 Retrospective: linkedin.com/posts/lukky_202…
Many founders and operators in the climate tech space are digesting the election results; some are worried about the future as we enter this new era of politics.
In case it’s helpful, here’s what I did this AM:
1. Update your Board: Let them know you’re thinking of what this means for you & your business, and why (if you already had a plan that you’re triggering into action, all the better!)
2. Reassure your teams: this is something they will want from their founders/CEOs - I sent a message to the company on Slack to set out what the election result means for Climate X and they really appreciate the timeliness and speed of the comms (tl:dr net neutral / positive in our case…!)
3. Support your American colleagues who may have stayed up all night and are now trying to process the outcome: they’ll appreciate a check-in- and a reminder that their work is needed now more than ever.
Thanks to @business for leading with an article based on our research bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Our latest innovative research shows 88% of the top global banks are failing to adequately address climate adaptation risks. 🌍

Thanks @amyrlewin for inviting me to the podcast to share some recent thoughts on climate tech, exciting spaces I want to invest in and balancing being a mother of two little ones while running a VC firm.
My latest guest on the @Siftedeu pod is @palebluedotvc partner @HeidiLindvall.
We discuss what types of climate techs she *doesn’t* need to see any more of, where there are big problems still to solve in climate & how to fundraise with a newborn.
