*Excited about the room forming - Microsoft, Google, Equinix, Lambda, Schneider Electric, PG&E, Lowercarbon Capital, Sony Ventures, Rockefeller Foundation confirmed so far. Keeping it intentionally small.
A timely conversation about carbon removal during San Francisco Climate Week - at a gorgeous private residence.
Every major infrastructure system eventually discovers its externalities. Railroads had land. Oil had spills. The internet had privacy.
AI is discovering carbon.
The systems being built are enormous - & at some point, every company scaling AI faces a simple question: what do you actually do about your carbon footprint?
For most founders, the answers are unsatisfying. Offsets feel vague. Climate solutions feel opaque. The market is hard to navigate from the outside.
This intimate gathering is designed to change that. ~30 seats. Short briefing. Candid conversation. No panels, no pitches. Chatham House rule.
