## Summary

Host Dylan Garrett moderates a panel at New York Climate Week featuring Colin Campbell of Cambridge Consultants, Trudy Wang of Hala Technologies, Lisa Hansmann of Engine Ventures, Kate Kelly of Avalanche Energy, and Catherine Mizrahi Rodriguez of Osmoses. The group argues that deep tech is essential for climate change, discussing how innovations like fusion, high-temperature superconducting tape, and gas separation membranes can scale alongside existing infrastructure. They highlight the critical need for stakeholder alignment, policy engagement, and partnerships to overcome the high capital intensity and long timelines of deep tech development.
