4WARD’s connections within ClimateTech have been super helpful over the past few months and helped us tremendously in closing our first financing round!

Rene Haas

CEO of Neocarbon

Having so many talented startups clustered here has been brilliant. I’ve met some amazing startups that I might not have otherwise met, and connected them with some of our corporate partners as well.

Hendrik Dik

Climate Lead, MassChallenge Switzerland

4WARD’s global network is invaluable. I joined a sector call on decarbonising the built world and met people all over the world tackling it in different ways. During the call, I met an expert from Canada while being in Switzerland! We’ve since had multiple calls and he’s likely to become a board member of my company. This is how a global climate networking should work!

Kevin Kyer

CEO, Pyrpose

As someone new to the industry it has been nice to have someplace to plug into that immediately gave me exposure to many like-minded people with expertise across industry. It’s like a mini, perpetual climate conference in my pocket.

Matt Trudea

CEO, Nori

4WARD has been instrumental from day one in helping us connect to great investors, prospective clients and strategic partners. Can’t recommend 4WARD enough - their network & hustle are incredibly valuable.
