Welcome
Last updated: March 2026
Welcome to the Climate Marketplace, an online platform where investors can discover and connect with climate-focused start-ups across the globe. By accessing or using the Climate Marketplace website at climate-marketplace.com (the “Marketplace” or the “Site”), you agree to abide by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, you must not use the Site. Climate Marketplace facilitates visibility, communication and introductions between climate-focused start-ups and investors. The Marketplace does not participate in negotiations or transactions between users and does not provide investment advice.
We have made two versions of the legal terms: ‘The Short Version’ which gives you an overview and ‘The Long Version’ which provides more detail. This should, we hope, make the terms easier to digest!
