📍 1 Triton Square, London NW1 3BF
Artificial intelligence is transforming industries and rapidly reshaping global energy demand. Training and deploying AI systems requires vast amounts of continuous, stable power, placing new pressures on infrastructure, generation, and grid management. Whilst more energy-efficient technologies are emerging, many expect the “Jevons Paradox” to apply: as efficiency improves, adoption accelerates — driving overall energy consumption even higher. Climate technologies are no longer just part of the sustainability conversation — they are becoming critical commercial infrastructure enabling the next phase of AI growth. At the same time, AI itself is accelerating innovation across energy generation, optimisation, and deployment, creating a virtuous circle.
Delivered in partnership with London GreenCity, an accelerator focused on scaling commercially viable climate and energy technologies, this session will explore how founders, corporates, and investors can support this virtuous circle, where technology can solve the challenges posed by AI and harvest its power for deeper and more rapid development. Through a panel discussion featuring entrepreneurs and key stakeholders shaping the AI-energy transition — alongside an innovation showcase highlighting some of the UK’s most exciting climate-tech startups — the evening will discuss how climate tech is being repositioned as essential infrastructure for AI, what buyers and investors in the AI space are actually looking for today and how AI can accelerate the deployment of clean energy solutions.

Our Thursday Gatherings are for you to make serendipitous connections and make things happen!
There will be meaningful networking opportunities throughout the night, accompanied by a selection of refreshments and activities:
Fun Zone
Get to know your fellow change-makers in a fun, interactive, and exciting way!
Take a quick break from changing the world and recharge by pinning your hometown on our giant map.
Conversation Corner
Looking to connect beyond the name tags?
Drop into our relaxed Conversation Corner, a cosy space where founders, ecosystem builders, and global thinkers come together to share stories, swap lessons, and innovate. Grab a drink, pull up a chair, and jump into the discussion.
We're excited to welcome an incredible lineup of startups:
- Infiniflux: deeptech startup redefining data centre efficiency.
- Gyre Energy: cutting costs for cooling-intensive operators.
- IONATE: building the hardware-software backbone for smart grids.
- MuWave: a high-power microwave technology company.
- Koitech Global: redefining how the world captures, stores, and uses energy.
What if climate change wasn’t something you only read about – but something you could actually taste?
Wines we think we know start behaving differently. New regions appear where no one expected them. Classic areas become a little less predictable.
At this tasting, we’ll explore how warming temperatures, heatwaves and shifting seasons are changing wine styles, balance and character – and we’ll taste those changes together.
