When like-minded organizations join forces with similar goals and desires – great results happen. This is precisely how The Nest Climate Campus was born. Created to advance sustainability, The Nest was founded in 2019 by supporting organizations The Javits Center, NYC & Company, and the Climate Group. The inaugural event attracted many organizations eager to share their important research and proved to be a successful networking center during Climate Week NYC.
The Nest Climate Campus is now a proud event partner of Climate Week NYC and is honored to contribute to the mission of expanding climate action here in the U.S.
ABOUT EACH ORGANIZATION
Climate Week NYC is one of the key summits in the international calendar that has taken place every year in New York City since 2009. The summit takes place alongside the UN General Assembly and brings together international leaders from business, government and civil society to showcase global climate action.
The Climate Group is a non-profit organization that works with business and government leaders around the world to address climate change. The group works to accelerate climate action and acts as a catalyst to take innovations and solutions to scale by driving together powerful networks of businesses and governments that shift global markets and policies.
Located in Manhattan’s West Side, The Javits Center is the busiest convention center in the United States. It is also a leader in sustainable architecture, as it is home to a robust sustainability program including state-of-the-art, energy-efficient equipment and policies, a growing wildlife sanctuary on a 6.75-acre green roof and a new project in conjunction with the New York Power Authority to install the largest rooftop solar array in New York City.

Climatebase is both a product-centric and community-centric technology company.
They are the first hiring platform entirely focused on climate. With hundreds-of-thousands of users in the past year, Climatebase is increasingly being recognized as the go-to jobs and talent marketplace for the rapidly growing climate tech vertical.
Additionally, they are now doubling-down on community, having successfully launched their first-of-many cohort-based courses, the Climatebase Fellowship, with an inaugural 150-person cohort selected from over 2,500 applicants we received. Climatebase is now in the early stages of scaling cohort-based courses, and in doing so, planting the seeds of community that will eventually flywheel into a scaled professional network — one that we may fully integrated into our platform and make core to our product’s user experience.
Climatebase's vision is to become the market network for climate — think “LinkedIn for climate”: part employment marketplace, and part professional network for individuals and organizations mission-focused on addressing climate change.
