Hello, all you climate champions - in this latest episode of the Climate Confident podcast, I had the privilege of chatting with Amos Wittenberg, Founder and CEO of Dovetail Finance. Amos has a fascinating story that stretches from financial journalism all the way to climate tech startup founder.

In our conversation, we dived into how Dovetail Finance is pioneering a fresh approach to financial intelligence, using complex data to shed light on the impacts of climate change on investments. We also discussed how the transition to Net Zero economies is disrupting industries and how this transition might look like from a global economic perspective.

What I love about Amos' approach is the big picture thinking - how will the policy and technology landscape change? What will the demand for products look like? What will the costs be for energy and raw materials? All these questions are crucial for businesses and investors looking to navigate the changing economic landscape brought on by climate change.

There's also a fascinating segment where we touched on the politics and policies of different regions, including China, the EU, and the US, and how these geopolitical nuances affect the movement towards a sustainable future. 

Finally, we had a wonderful discussion about Amos' journey to founding his first startup. His candid insights about the challenges and triumphs of this journey will resonate with anyone who's ever taken on the adventure of starting a business, especially in the climate tech space.

So, whether you're an investor seeking insight on climate-related financial risks, a startup enthusiast, or someone who is simply passionate about the planet, this episode is sure to offer you a fresh perspective.

As always, thank you for joining me on this journey towards a climate-confident world. Stay tuned for more inspiring conversations, and together let's make a difference!

Stay Climate Confident!
