The surge in AI investment is pulling funds from climate tech and leaving some startups facing bankruptcy, according to a prominent impact founder and CEO.
Investors are pulling money out of climate tech and rushing headlong into sectors such as artificial intelligence, according to one prominent founder and CEO.
"I know a bunch of founders that are pretty pissed off because their companies went bankrupt because the investors disinvested them, because, you know, climate tech isn’t hype anymore," Lubomila Jordanova, CEO of Berlin-based carbon accounting firm Plan A, tells Impact Loop.
