We’re delighted to invite you to the launch of Women in Climate Tech Australasia — a new chapter of the global Women in Climate Tech movement.
Building on the momentum of a strong European chapter and launching at Auckland Startup Week, Women in Climate Tech Australasia has a clear mission: to bring women together as catalysts for sustainable solutions. Research consistently shows that diversity fuels stronger performance and deeper impact. By amplifying women’s leadership in climate tech, we unlock new pathways for innovation that are not only commercially viable but also aligned with ecological resilience and long-term sustainability.
Hosted by Rebecca Mills of The Lever Room, this breakfast gathering marks the start of an energised community for founders and investors shaping climate innovation across our region. Coffee, croissants, and conversation will set the stage for collaboration, investment, and leadership.
✨ Let’s spark connections and kick-start the future of climate tech together.
Thanks to Motion Capital, Aurora Climate Lab, and GridAKL for supporting this event and mission!
Please RSVP to Rebecca Mills by Friday, 17 October to reserve your place.
