Ecosummit Zoom 3 June 2020
Our first Ecosummit Zoom 6 May 2020 was super successful with over 120 concurrent online participants. We featured 11 speakers in our 2h session including several smart green startups with open financing rounds: Greencom Networks Series C, Discovergy Series B and Solar for Schools Series A. The traction of EO Charging is very impressive and its 28-year old founder Charlie Jardine is ready to talk to new investors, too. Driven by the overwhelmingly positive feedback we’re happy to announce our second Ecosummit Zoom 3 June 2020, 10:00-12:00 and 15:00-17:00 Berlin time and third Ecosummit Zoom 1 July 2020, 10:00-12:00 and 15:00-17:00. 22 speakers are confirmed and included in the agenda below.

They take mobile electricity where it has never gone before. Their goal is smart green electrification without local CO2 emissions. Their solution is replacing stinky diesel gensets with silent mobile batteries. Today Instagrid makes a big step forward and celebrates the closing of its €8.5M Series A led by SET Ventures and joined by Segnalita Ventures, part of the Swarovski family office which also owns Tyrolit, Germany’s early stage power house HTGF and the Frankfurt-based family office blueworld.group. At the same time, this transaction boosts our Ecosummit track record of successfully matching startups and investors. In fact, Instagrid and SET Ventures met for the first time at Ecosummit Berlin 2019. While this sounds very romantic, the A round is a major milestone for every startup and the beginning of a long-lasting relationship with many board meetings and follow-ons until the M&A or IPO exit.
