Raiyaan Shingati

Managing Partner at Transition Venture Capital

Speaker

Raiyaan has been an avid ClimateTech Advocate & has been invited to multiple conferences in India & Middle East to share his views as a speaker on the Energy Transition Opportunity in India, which is a 200Bn+ opportunity by 2030. He has also been a guests on multiple podcasts including some held by the government of India. He is on a mission to offset 40Million tons of carbon footprint (1% of India’s annual carbon emissions) by investing in breakthrough technologies. This goal made him enter the exciting, yet nascent, world of Climate Tech.

Raiyaan is a strong believer in the power of innovation. He sees immense opportunity in the 70% of technologies crucial for achieving net-zero that are still in their early stages. This presents a unique chance to not only make impactful investments, but potentially reshape the future of our planet. His focus lies in engineering solutions that drive the transition from fossil fuels to a sustainable, non-fossil fuel based economy. From electric mobility to renewable energy, Raiyaan advocates for investing in novel technologies across the entire Climate Tech value chain. He firmly believes that financial success and environmental responsibility can go hand-in-hand, and that harnessing the power of capital is crucial for safeguarding our planet.

Raiyaan recognizes the urgency of the climate crisis. The critical 1.5-degree Celsius threshold looms large, and achieving net-zero emissions is no longer a future goal, but an immediate necessity. While global investments in Climate Tech have seen a surge to $1.5 trillion since 2022, a significant gap of $3 trillion annually remains. Bridging this gap is paramount to reaching net-zero targets.
