Capital A has recently announced that Climathon Dubai 2023 will take place on 6th September 2023, at the Taj, Business Bay in Dubai. This event aims to bring together VCs, founders, and ecosystem players for a day of collaboration and discussions. 

The event will also mark Capital-A's foray into the Middle East and India's climate tech ecosystems. It will also provide VCs in Dubai with insights into the burgeoning ClimaTech deals in India. 

Speaking about this, Ankit Kedia, founder and lead investor, Capital A said, "With Climathon Dubai, we aim to explore the intersections of climate technology and financial innovation and address the pressing global challenge of climate change. The idea is to leverage the potential of fintech to create a better world and become a catalyst for real change." 

Adding further about “Climathon'23, held in Bengaluru, he said that about 37 start-ups showcased their game-changing ideas, with potential of innovation to drive sustainable change and that the event in Dubai will  serve as a bigger platform for like-minded start-ups to converge.” 

Participants will get an opportunity to network with VC funds and the climate-tech ecosystem in Dubai and gain insights into the burgeoning segment. They will also be able to explore the exciting outcomes of the inaugural Climathon'23 in which start-ups redefined climate tech innovation.
