About the Event

Our Investment Showcase & Pilot Camp Events brings together high-potential energy, industrial, and deep-tech ventures, active investors, and corporate innovation teams for a full day of curated meetings, pilot exploration, and collaboration.

Our goal remains consistent: to accelerate investment readiness, commercial validation, and deployment opportunities across the energy transition ecosystem.

The day is structured to help ventures gain both investor exposure and corporate engagement — with the flexibility to join the morning Investor 1:1s, the afternoon Pilot Camp, or the full-day program.

With 350+ tech funds attending annually, 400+ investor meetings, and a 55,000+ person global community, our events have become a cornerstone of the energy, industrial and deep-tech investment calendar. Startups we’ve showcased have gone on to raise more than $600M, accelerating climate solutions with real-world impact.

Curated, pre-scheduled 1:1 meetings that match leading climate funds with high-potential founders. Designed around mutual interest, these focused sessions cut through the noise and open the door to real deal-making. (Limited slots available.)

Pilot Camp

An interactive Pilot Camp — a working session where ambitious startups pitch groundbreaking pilots to expert judges and a live audience dedicated to exploring pilot deployments, demo opportunities, and corporate innovation collaboration.

Expert Panel Discussions

Industry leaders and seasoned investors share perspectives on the forces shaping today’s climate investment landscape — from emerging technologies and shifting priorities to the future of sustainable innovation.

Networking That Matters

From coffee breaks to evening receptions, every moment is designed to connect you with peers, partners, and potential collaborators. Build meaningful relationships that last well beyond the event.

January 2026 Showcase & Pilot Camp Recap | London

In January 2026, Greenbackers hosted its Investment Showcase & Pilot Camp at Sustainable Ventures in London, bringing together over 250 delegates, 170 funds, and 200+ curated 1:1 meetings with Energy, Industrial, and Deep-tech ventures. Startups presented groundbreaking technologies, explored pilot opportunities, and engaged with investors and corporate innovation leaders.

This edition featured our first Pilot Camp of the year, where participating ventures pitched their technologies for pilot deployment opportunities. The session was evaluated by six distinguished corporate judges from BP, Siemens Energy, Fortescue, Aramco, and Repsol, providing valuable insights and feedback to the presenting startups.

The morning also included a panel discussion moderated by Juliana Garaizar, with Gema García González, Keiren Lake, and Simon Brown exploring the critical interdependencies between pilot projects and investment, and examining how these combined efforts can help address the scale-up challenges faced by emerging technologies in today’s market.

In the afternoon, 204 individual eight-minute speed-dating sessions took place between ventures and investors, creating a highly focused environment for deal-making and collaboration. The day concluded with networking, offering participants an opportunity to connect while enjoying views of the Thames and the iconic Big Ben.
