Insurance & Cleantech: New Markets for Climate Resilience
February 11, 2025
10:00 AM EST | 7:00 AM PST | 3:00 PM GMT
The increasing synergy between cleantech and the insurance sector is evident:
- Insurance products reduce the risks of new technologies
_ - Insurers collaborate to reduce the risks of climate change
_ - Insurance companies are seizing opportunities to invest in climate companies via CVCs and accelerator programs
Insurers, however, must rapidly change their operational practices to adapt to increasing climate risks and be positioned to capitalize on cleantech opportunities. Whilst many are adopting proactive underwriting approaches, creating cleantech teams, and partnering with innovators, there is an overall lack of awareness and education of what’s possible. This webinar will:
- Provide a landscape of innovations across cleantech and insure-tech
_ - Highlight revolutionary partnerships and operational shifts
_ - Provide practical advice to insurers scoping or investing resources into cleantech
Cleantech Group’s Holly Stower will be joined by Jared Concannon, Head of Technology and Climate Tech, Chubb Overseas General at Chubb, and Chris Slater, Founder & CEO, Oka, The Carbon Insurance Company
