ABU DHABI, 17th January, 2025 (WAM) -- The Ministry of Economy’s NextGen FDI initiative has
partnered with Climate First, a leading European private equity firm specialising in climate
innovation investments, to advance the UAE’s climate-tech ecosystem.
The partnership, which will see Climate First bring its portfolio companies to the UAE for
networking, partnership and expansion opportunities, was cemented with the inaugural Climate
First UAE Roadshow, in partnership with the UAE Ministry of Economy, during Abu Dhabi
Sustainability Week (ADSW) 2025.
The Roadshow brought five pioneering climate tech companies – Climeworks, Energy Dome,
ZeroAviva, Cylib, and Glasspoint – to Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week to explore opportunities for
establishing strategic, high-impact partnerships with major UAE stakeholders driving meaningful
decarbonisation in the Emirates.
