Join us on August 27th for the final workshop of the Houston Ion District Investor Activation Program!

This insightful panel discussion will delve into impact investing, exploring how both seasoned and aspiring early-stage venture investors in Houston can define impact. We'll examine various approaches to measuring impact, explore impact investing beyond climate initiatives, and how you can put everything you’ve learned through the Activation Program workshops into action!

Houston Ion District Investor Activation Program

 is helping build an equitable climatetech industry capable of rapid deployment by addressing a fundamental challenge: the region’s lack of funding for early-stage climatetech startups, and especially for those led by underrepresented founders.

This program from Greentown Labs and the Ion brings early-stage investors from Greater Houston—a region playing a pivotal role in the energy transition—into the fold, offering education on climatetech investing, channeling a pool of capital to young startups, and catalyzing a thriving climatetech investment ecosystem that prioritizes diversity, equity, and inclusion.
