We’re happy to announce that GreenPortfolio has joined the Future Climate Venture Studio!
Led by UConn, R/GA Ventures, and CTNext, the studio aims to identify and support innovative startups addressing the most critical dimensions of the climate challenge (that’s us!).
Joining this cohort means that we’ll get to tap into the Studio’s resources and support over the coming months. Our CEO, Bonnie Gurry, says, “The support of the UConn, CTNext, Connecticut Innovations, and R/GA teams while simultaneously joining a cohort of accomplished and driven founders has been really fantastic. The effort put into coordinating all of these resources and contacts was really next level and we can’t wait to see how far this group will go!”
GreenPortfolio is on a mission to help people fight climate change with their finances. As a team of millennials and Gen Z, we know our generations are demanding easy ways to make sure our money helps the planet while giving us a fair return. We’ll make the most of this opportunity to accelerate us on this mission.
Elizabeth Landau, our COO, highlighted the joy of collaborating with other founders in the program: “This was the first program we’ve been able to attend in person! Spending time with these impressive founders has already been beneficial — feedback on ideas, sharing resources, and helping each other tackle business challenges.”
