Welcome to our podcast with The Impact Venture , featuring in-depth interviews with LP-GP institutional investors, angel investors, faculty members at UC Berkeley, and all of our friends, focusing on impact investing, cleantech venture capital and project finance.
In this episode, we’re joined by Andrew Chang, Chief Growth Officer at New Energy Nexus, one of the world’s leading ecosystem builders for clean energy entrepreneurs. Andrew drives growth and business development by leading a cross-border team and expanding into emerging climate ecosystems and new markets. He previously spearheaded the organization’s expansion into Asia—including China, Thailand, and Indonesia—and launched innovation programs with LG Energy Solutions, Hyundai, Kia, and Hub71 in Abu Dhabi. We explore how New Energy Nexus supports early- and growth-stage startups through non-dilutive funding, testbed access, and global collaboration—and why cross-border innovation is essential to accelerating climate solutions at scale.
The Impact Venture invests in climate tech and renewable energy projects via venture capital and project finance, leveraging our proprietary Due Diligence AI Copilot - where AI meets investors. We also designed a VC Deal Fellowship Training Program for fellows to gain deal experience.
