PART 1: Meet the investor

Today on the Tech4Climate podcast, I met Helen Lin, Partner at At One

Ventures which is a forward-thinking venture capital firm dedicated to

investing in early-stage companies that leverage disruptive deep

technology to challenge traditional industries while significantly

reducing their environmental impact.

Helen's journey undertakes a transformation from a conventional finance

career to a purpose-driven path. She began in investment banking and

private equity, later realizing the need for meaningful work. She

completed an MBA before dedicating eight years to microfinance in

Africa. Witnessing the intertwined challenges of climate change and

social impact in vulnerable regions fueled her passion for climate tech

and venture capital. Helen's commitment to climate justice, equitable

resource allocation, and investment in emerging markets reflects her

deep sense of responsibility to address climate change's impact on

underserved populations and the planet - making her journey an inspiring

example.

The conversation then delves into Helen's unique insights and

experiences within the climate tech sector, offering a glimpse into the

innovative solutions regarding mining technologies to ensure the

sustainable supply of critical minerals, its challenges &

opportunities, plus the Geopolitical considerations.

Stay tuned to gain valuable insights into the exciting world of climate

tech, mining technologies and sustainable investing.
