LEVER TIME PREMIUM: Investing Against Climate Change
On this week’s bonus episode of Lever Time Premium, exclusively for The Lever’s supporting subscribers, producer Jared Jacang Maher sits down with Will Wiseman and Alba Forns, co-founders of the green energy investment app Climatize.
After attending the global climate strikes in Barcelona in 2019, Will and Alba decided to turn that collective energy into tangible impact. That’s when they came up with the idea for Climatize — a mobile app that allows users to invest in solar and green energy projects, many of which are focused on underserved communities.
Jared chats with Will and Alba about the genesis of their idea, how Climatize manages risk and transparency for its investors, and their new contract with the U.S. Department of Energy.
