How does a climate technology actually get out of the lab and into the real world? More often than not, the answer is capital: the right kind, at the right stage, structured the right way. In Part 1 of TreeLynk Conversations, Inesh Singh (Co-Founder, TreeLynk) sits down with Sakshi Gore, Chief Business Officer at Microbeworks Scientific, to unpack the role different forms of capital play in scaling technologies that solve climate change. From grants to equity, Sakshi breaks down how funding decisions can make or break early-stage climate innovation, and what she has learned moving from evaluating climate investments to building inside a climate startup. In this episode we cover: ▸ Why so many promising climate technologies stall between the lab and the market ▸ How grants, equity, and blended capital each play a distinct role at different stages ▸ What founders and investors most often get wrong about funding early-stage climate tech ▸ What it really takes to move a deep-tech climate solution from lab to market About our guest - Sakshi Gore is a sustainability and climate professional with 8 years of experience across environmental consulting, climate startups, and impact investing. She currently serves as Chief Business Officer at Microbeworks Scientific, a biotech startup working on climate solutions, where she helps the company move from lab to market.

In this concise 15‑minute conversation, we explore what circularity really means for fashion and retail, and whether fast fashion and true circular business models can realistically coexist.
