I’m moderating a big climate-tech event today in a giant tent in a forest south of Tel Aviv, where the goal is to be “carbon balanced” and re-use/offset everything. Other event organisers, please take note.

Thanks Sifted for explaining how I went from editing WIRED UK to becoming an accidental climate-tech and health-tech VC… after setting up the not-for-profit VOYAGERS.IO community sifted.eu/articles/voyag…
