​Featured Session:

​In this live recording of the All About FOAK session, Somil Aggarwal from CleanTechies will be your host. Somil will dive into the complexities and triumphs of First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) projects, helping connect the dots between pioneering technologies and the real-world impact of climate innovation.

​If you’re a climate tech company just starting out, you’ve likely heard the term "first-of-a-kind" or FOAK. FOAKs are a major milestone for climate tech companies, representing the crucial leap from theoretical or small-scale solutions to commercial-ready technology. While taking this step can be daunting, it's an essential part of scaling innovative solutions to meet real-world demand.

​For this special session, Somil will interview Yair Reem from Extantia as they explore the challenges and opportunities surrounding FOAK projects. Together, they'll discuss what it takes to build a FOAK, why they're important, and how they help bridge the gap between breakthrough ideas and their commercial application.

​With only 10 audience spots available, make sure to RSVP now and secure your place for this one-of-a-kind event!
