Planning to attend NYC Climate Week?

Already there!? 

When Nico realized he had to make a last-minute trip to NYC this week during climate week, he reached out to two friends who could give him a solid education on what to expect (and where to focus) for this week’s NYC Week. 

“So my question was, well, I just want to know who's attending, because that's, almost more important as, what the events are.” – Steven Zhang

Whether you’re flying in from the West Coast or crossing borough lines, this episode is your essential survival guide to one of the most chaotic, inspiring, and decentralized climate events on the planet.

Nico did a live stream last week with Silas Mähner, co-host of the Cleantechies Podcast, and Steven Zhang, the resource genius behind ClimateTechList and Interconnection.FYI. Together, they unpack the who, what, where and of course the WHEN of Climate Week—from invite-only rooftop dinners to jam-packed founder meetups and satellite panels hosted in every corner of Manhattan.

Expect to learn:

🔹 Why NYC Climate Week is no longer just a “side event” to the UN General Assembly
🔹 Where job seekers and climate founders go to actually get hired or funded
🔹 The must-know digital tools and maps for navigating events (without losing your mind)
🔹 How to prep, pitch, and stand out—even if you don’t have a ticket to anything yet

If you’re attending—or just curious what all the LinkedIn buzz is about—this episode gives you the inside scoop you won’t find on any official agenda.
