Building Climate Tech Unicorns: Presented by SusMafia x Wavemaker Impact 

An exclusive invite-only networking event for experienced founders!

Who we are?

Wavemaker Impact (“WMi”) is Southeast Asia’s leading climate-tech venture build fund, part of Wavemaker Partners. Launched in 2021, Wavemaker Impact co-founds sustainability startups with proven entrepreneurs, with the goal of building a portfolio of companies by 2035 that has the potential to reduce 10% of the global carbon budget. Every startup that Wavemaker Impact builds is a ‘100x100’ company — with the potential to abate 100 million metric tonnes of CO2e and generate US$100 million in revenue per year. 

Under its US$60 million debut fund, WMi co-built 16 portfolio companies across 9 countries targeting the biggest drivers of emissions such as agriculture, energy, industrial processes, built environment, and transport. In 2025, as a continuation of its mission, WMi is now expanding into India in 2025 to partner with highly driven founders and build the next wave of transformative climate tech startups.

What is Sustainability Mafia?

The Sustainability Mafia (SusMafia) is a leading non-profit (Section 8 company) climate founder-focused community of sustainability entrepreneurs with a vision to 'make sustainability the default choice' by 'multiplying the impact of sustainability founders through goal-oriented collaborations'.
