In June 2024, ClimateFundr proudly participated in SusCrunch, India’s premier sustainability entrepreneurship summit, hosted by The Sustainability Mafia.
As one of the key attendees and partners, Chandrashekar Bhat, founder of ClimateFundr played a key role in the team that brought together over 200 decision-makers, including entrepreneurs, investors, corporate leaders, and ecosystem enablers, all focused on accelerating climate action and innovation.
At the heart of the event was the announcement of the largest climate grant in India, a monumental Rs. 31.4 lakh “Big Pi” grant, awarded to the winning startup that demonstrated exceptional potential for scaling and impact. The event also featured 10 high-quality Seed and Series-A startups, many of whom were SusMafia entrepreneurs, who pitched for investment and support from the assembled leaders and investors.
For ClimateFundr, SusCrunch 2024 was more than just an event—it was an opportunity to strengthen connections with the climate-tech ecosystem, mentor entrepreneurs, and facilitate vital investment opportunities for early-stage startups. Our involvement at the summit reinforced our role as a key player in empowering climate founders and enabling funding pathways for sustainability-driven ventures. \
Through our platform, ClimateFundr will play an essential role in accelerating climate innovation by providing a space for climate-tech startups to gain visibility, connect with mentors and investors, and access the funding they need to scale their solutions.
