In an open letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, European VC firms and impact companies warn that Europe faces a “perfect storm” of challenges and that the EU needs to de-risk private investments in the climate sector by expanding public funding.
With the EU Commission set to unveil its Clean Industrial Deal next month, 102 climate tech startups and investors have teamed up to present President Ursula von der Leyen with a wish list of what they want to see.
In open letter to Von der Leyen, they are calling for unprecedented measures to create a surge in demand for industrial cleantech and more public funding to make it less risky for startups to scale up.
