“Climate Scale-Up is amazing.

I literally would not be at Davos if it was not for Climate Scale-Up, because Davos is this giant, nebulous, hard to navigate event where it's very easy to get lost in the multiplicity of possible events that you could be at.

Climate Scale-Up is organizing it for us so that it's high value and we waste as little time as possible trying to figure out what to do.”
