#48 Caitlin Wale - CEO and Founder of Kinjani - Backing African Climate Talent
Manage episode 419038226 series 3471071
Hello and welcome to the Tech and Trees podcast. My name is Pascal Mies and on Tech and Trees I talk to ClimateTech founders, investors and operators to learn about how we build better ClimateTech companies and how we build more of them faster.
On this episode I talk to Caitlin Wale, the founder of Kinjani. This conversation takes us back to the African continent. With Kinjani Caitlin aimes to catalyse African nature-based and industrial decarbonisation solutions. Through a mix of program support and investment, she wants to support African science-driven entrepreneurs, bring them together with commercial co-founders to produce a wave of African ventures driving climate positive growth. Kinjani has just opened applications for their first cohort which will start in Cape Town in August. If you want to build a climate company in Africa, there are probably few if any better places to do so. All necessary links are in the description. Now, listen to Caitlin and her view on why Africa provides a unique feeding ground for climate-focused start-ups.
