Today, our planet is operating off hundreds of millions of years of accumulated plant- and animal-based carbon. On our current trajectory, this stored energy will be fully exhausted in only a few generations and, in the process, carbonize our atmosphere to such a degree that life as we know it will not be possible. If our planet is to continue to sustain life and enchant future generations, we must change.
To build the kind of future our kids and our kids’ kids deserve, extraordinary steps must be taken to stop the carbonization of our atmosphere. This requires individuals and entire industries to come together in ways we never have before. This is where Play Bigger Ventures potential lies – inspiring and supporting tech entrepreneurs, executive teams and investors to solve some of the biggest and most complex problems and create demand for a new category of solutions.
As staggering as this may sound, and as complex as our objective is, we already have everything we need to create this change. It starts with harnessing the very thing every human being is born with – a problem solving mind. There is a reason why we are hardwired with curiosity and a capacity to invent different and unique ways of doing things. As computer scientists we have been doing this for decades in both the consumer and enterprise worlds.
In fact, every product and service we love exists because a legendary entrepreneur had a unique insight about an unsolved problem. And, not only did they create a product and company to solve that problem — they designed a category around it. Creating demand where demand didn’t exist, an urgency for change, pricing power and long-term value.
Now it’s time to turn our passion to doing this in perhaps the most important category in the history of mankind: Climate Tech.
