Going beyond traditional focus areas, the event aims to broaden perspectives on some of India's major climate opportunities, including hydrogen, alternative fuels, energy storage, EVs, water management, green buildings, alt-protein, and other pertinent areas.

"Sustainability is no longer a choice, it's a necessity for India's future," emphasizes Samir Shah, Managing Partner at Peak Sustainability Ventures. "Sustainability will be a key part of India's story over the next decade, especially as India starts to play a more central role in the global sustainability landscape and in helping the world achieve its sustainable development goals. At an industry level, climate is one of the fastest-growing verticals within venture capital. The time for India to put sustainability at the forefront is here and now, and the climate pavilion will serve as a catalyst for furthering the conversation on India's energy transition and sustainability journey."
