Speaker Session

13:30–14:45

Innovation Lab

The Innovation Lab showcases ventures and funds working on climate, oceans, inclusion and other critical challenges across Asia Pacific. In fast-paced lightning pitches, founders will share the challenges they are solving, how their model works, and what type of capital they need to scale. The session is designed to maximise interaction: short pitches, focused Q&A, and plenty of time to connect with founders throughout the day in the Innovation Lab zone.
