Studio focus

Climate & Infrastructure Studio

Climate & Infrastructure Studio helps founders validate and commercialise infrastructure, climate and resilience products with enterprise, municipal, mining and utility buyers.

Strategic goal

Move resilience ventures into practical pilots with municipalities, utilities, mines, estates, logistics networks and enterprise asset owners.
