Dalus Capital Latam Climate Innovation Startup Radar

Updated Latam Climate Startup Radar

We just gave our Latam Climate Innovation Startup Radar a major update. You might have seen the previous version when we released it for the first time last year. It’s a cool tool that helps map out startups that are working on solutions to combat climate change in Latin America. These startups are broken down into four main categories: AgTech, Energy, Green Consumer, and Mobility. You can grab the high-res version of the radar by clicking here.

The new version of the radar includes 191 startups, which is a huge jump from the 147 we had before – a 30% increase. If you know of any other startups that should be on our radar, make sure to let us know by filling out this form.
