In the past, saving the world has not always been associated with making a profit. However, with the growing concern over climate change, a new wave of startups and investors have found a way to combine environmental impact with financial success.
We are thrilled to announce that Rebecca Hu, CEO of Glacier; Allison Wolff, CEO of Vibrant Planet; and Hyuk-Jeen Suh, co-founder of Venx and general partner at SkyRiver Ventures, will be speaking at TechCrunch Disrupt 2024 on October 28–30 in San Francisco on the Builders Stage.
During their panel discussion, “How Startups Can Save the World,” they will discuss the challenges and successes of starting climate-focused companies, how their missions drive innovation and recruitment, and how they balance environmental impact with financial returns.
Rebecca Hu founded Glacier to revolutionize waste management using AI-powered robots that can sort recyclable materials more efficiently than traditional methods. Allison Wolff co-founded Vibrant Planet to address wildfire threats and protect ecosystems through data-driven solutions. Hyuk-Jeen Suh founded Venx to create a collaborative venture hub to support deep tech startups.
