Why Most Climate Tech Startups Fail at Execution!!
About this episode
Welcome to the CanadianSME Small Business Podcast, hosted by Kripa Anand. Today, we explore how climate technology is evolving from an environmental conversation into a strategic driver of energy security, economic stability, and operational efficiency. For many founders, the challenge lies in crossing the gap between a successful lab breakthrough and real market adoption.
Joining us is Jamie Moran, Chief Growth Officer and Partner at ClimateDoor. With an entrepreneurial background that began in Silicon Valley’s neuroscience sector, Jamie now helps climate innovators translate scientific breakthroughs into scalable commercial solutions.
