What Do Energy VCs Actually Look For?
Raising capital for an energy startup today means passing a far sharper filter than it did two years ago, and few founders get an honest look at what that filter actually tests for. Venture capital in energy has matured fast - grid, storage, industrial decarbonisation, mobility and buildings are all drawing serious capital, but the bar for what gets funded keeps rising. Understanding exactly what an active investor is screening for, and where the strongest opportunities sit today, has never mattered more. Join @Joseph Goodman, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at VoLo Earth Ventures, for a candid conversation on how an early-stage energy investor evaluates companies, the mistakes founders make most often, and where he's seeing real opportunity across the sector right now. Time & Date: Wednesday, December 2, 2026 @ 5:00 PM - 5:45 PM CET Platform: Live here on Circle Cost: FREE for registered participants What You'll Learn How VCs Evaluate Energy Transition Deals What Joseph and VoLo Earth Ventures look for before writing a check in grid, storage, and industrial decarbonisation The most common mistakes founders make when pitching in these sectors Where the opportunity is today, where capital is flowing across mobility, buildings, and the wider energy transition landscape Reasons for optimism about where energy transition investment is headed Who Should Attend Energy transition and climate tech founders raising capital Corporate sustainability and innovation professionals Investors and fund managers focused on energy transition Why Attend Joseph brings a rare, active investor's perspective to the sectors driving the energy transition today. This is a direct, practical look at what actually gets funded, told firsthand by someone making those calls, not a recycled fundraising playbook.

NGOstack field pilot: 5 places for NGO field projects
NGOstack is looking for up to 5 NGO field projects to join a 4-6 week pilot of the NGOstack field app. Partner projects use the mobile app in their weekly field work (record evidence against the logframe, update indicators, post to the project feed, offline use supported) with NGOstack's team alongside them, and help shape what gets built next. What partners get: at least 12 months of full Org plan access free of charge for projects that complete the pilot, personal onboarding and a direct line to the people building NGOstack, public featuring on NGOstack's social channels, website and pilot stories, and influence over future product fixes and features based on their field experience. What is expected: create an organisation on the platform and invite team members, add the field project and import an existing logframe (Excel, Word or PDF) and budget (NGOstack helps with setup), use the app in weekly field work for 4-6 weeks and share feedback, and agree to public recognition (logo, pilot outcomes, team testimonials). Optionally connect the organisation's social accounts and website so updates are shared automatically. How to apply: fill in the short application form (about two minutes) via the link on the pilot page. Applications are reviewed as they arrive and the pilot starts right after selection, followed by a short onboarding call. Existing NGOstack users keep their data.
