What's next?"]]>The title says [0] and the very first line says [1]. When I read the article, I expected medium / deep climate tech companies to be mentioned. I feel these companies are more difficult to comprehend for a general investor and might struggle with public valuation. Once I go inside, the article talks about just “Energy transition” companies and doesn’t touch the broader topic of “climate tech”. Far better than typical clickbait-y titles but still.

[0] “Climate tech companies are going public”

[1] “This year, there’s been a wave of notable energy companies going public”

Maybe they need a build a hybrid expertise of "domain" and "software engineering". For example, robotic surgery requires expert surgeons to build sufficient expertise in robotics

Also, noticed a pretty high karma for a throwaway account.
