FinTech Revolution: Bridging Geospatial Data Science, AI, and Sustainability
We're thrilled to announce a significant achievement in our ongoing work at Climate Finance Action. Our Executive Director, Mary Cerulli, has made a substantial contribution to the upcoming book FinTech Revolution: Bridging Geospatial Data Science, AI, and Sustainability, scheduled for release by Springer in 2024. This book, a unique exploration of how FinTech and emerging technologies are leveraged to tackle climate risks, particularly through sustainable investments, and a roadmap for using these tools to drive change in the financial sector, is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of finance, technology, and sustainability.
Suchi Gopal and Josh Pitts of Floodlight, former winners of MassChallenge FinTech, have developed cutting-edge approaches to using geospatial data science and AI for climate-conscious investing, and FinTech Revolution delves into their journey and innovations. This book brings together perspectives on how the financial industry can better align with sustainability goals to support the path to net-zero emissions, addressing critical challenges.
The book launch will be celebrated with an event—FinTech Revolution: Catalyzing Sustainable Investments and Transformative Technologies— at the MassChallenge headquarters in Seaport on Thursday, November 7, 2024, from 12:00 to 2:00 PM ET and include a panel discussion featuring prominent leaders in finance, technology, and sustainability:
Mark Casady, General Partner & Cofounder, Vestigo Ventures
Mary Cerulli, Founder of Climate Finance Action
Mary-Stuart Freydberg, Managing Director, Counterpointe Sustainable Advisors
The panel will discuss how FinTech technologies are reshaping the landscape of sustainable investments, focusing on pension funds, climate risk metrics, and innovative approaches to fostering a just and sustainable economy. This is a unique opportunity to engage with thought leaders who drive the future of finance and gain insights into how these changes can directly impact investment strategies.
We invite you to be part of this exciting journey by pre-ordering FinTech Revolution and joining us for the book launch event. It's a fantastic opportunity to delve into how technology can be a powerful tool in addressing the pressing challenges of climate change and sustainability as we continue to push for responsible investing and innovative solutions that create a better future for people and the planet.
