Description
Melanie Windridge interviews Phil Larochelle from Breakthrough Energy Ventures and Clea Kolster from Lowercarbon Capital to explore key contextual questions on fusion as an investment opportunity:
- Why is investor interest in fusion growing? How investible is fusion?
- What is needed for fusion to main-stream, and how does it get there?
- How will rising rates/the current market downturn affect funding for fusion?
