About Event

[Updated with specific agenda - we hope you'll join us for this call!]

Join me to kick off the new quarter and season with a green tech, sustainability, and AI impact-building conversation. See what my new team and I have built so far (it's pretty cool!), hear what we're doing in Q2 2025, share what you're doing, and let's see what inspiring things we can make happen!

Marshall Kirkpatrick (that's me) and team have begun a new consultancy called Earth Catalyst (earthcatalyst.co). We're helping organizations make a bigger impact in their work for sustainability.

Session Agenda

  • See our new tech (our AI Prism has a nice new look!) and a preview of what’s coming next

  • Hear about our research-based go to market plans; including research about the strategies of the fastest-growing startups in the circular economy sector

  • Learn about our consulting projects underway; including greenhouse gas emissions accounting for an international tech company

  • THEN: Tell us about you!

    • We'll invite anyone who’d like to, to introduce yourself and share what you're working on.  I’ll scour my brain in real time to offer any examples of projects and people I think might be fruitful for you to connect with and we’ll follow up with any additional resources we can.  And you’ll get to meet others on the call!

Who is doing this??

Quick catch up for anyone I'm just now meeting. I come from two worlds: tech startups and environmental activism.

Over the past 20 years, in tech, I've been

  • the first writer hired at TechCrunch

  • co-editor of NYT syndicated ReadWriteWeb

  • co-founder of Mark Cuban backed expert-finding search engine Little Bird

  • VP at Sprinklr from $100M ARR through $400M and IPO

  • I built an AI on AI news tracking and startup discovery system as part of VC firm Headline.com

And in climate and sustainability, I have

  • Written the climate news section of Exponential View for 2022

  • Spent time doing media work and local chapter leadership with Extinction Rebellion

  • Collaborated with and supported the 50 year old indigenous organization Cultural Survival

  • Partnered with and attended the fellowship program of Climatebase, the leading site for finding climate jobs

  • Contributed extensively to the UNFCC's climate adaptation program Resilience Frontiers

Now I'm building Earth Catalyst with an awesome new team, with help from my network of friends, and with a great sense of urgency.

Come join us on this call and check it out!
