Description
The Reverse Pitch session flips the script of a traditional venture pitch competition and gives investors the stage. In this session we will hear from three venture capital investors as they pitch what they see as a critical problem in need of innovative technologies or new business models. The goal of the session serves as a thought-provoking experience on how these top investors build an investment thesis, and an opportunity for a wide network of attendees at the Summit to engage with pressing climate problems.
