The inaugural Canadian Climate Investor Conference successfully attracted several hundreds of investors. Kudos to RE Royalties and the other founding members - UGE International, ReVolve Renewables, Solar Alliance, Evergen Infrastructure, Electrovaya, Clearblue Technologies, Westbridge Renewables, Synex Renewables, Carbon Streaming, and good natured Products - who were among the 16 presenting companies. Each company had 15-minutes to discuss their company's solutions to create a clean and secure future, along with an opportunity to take questions at their exhibitor booth. The company presentations were punctuated with fireside chats with the event's sponsors, Canaccord Genuity, Integral Wealth Securities, McMillan LLP, TMX Group, and Water Tower Research.
