Hyper-focus on data centers is masking a much bigger picture. Mapping the power demand over the next 5 years: it extends far beyond tech, touching all industries. We’re moving toward highly resilient power, and a potential AI shakeout will only accelerate the shift.

Love that Allegheny County is the farthest west that the East Coast can go. As someone who was born/worked in Manhattan and grew up and now live in Lawrenceville, it completely tracks. 30 minutes west and south of Pittsburgh is a new wonderful region, what a place! What are your thoughts @chrisbriem ?

What an incredible Climate Week NYC. At Confluence Capital Impact Partners, our week was defined by high-impact conversations, new partnerships, and advancing our mission to drive positive-sum climate investing, plus a podcast. Here is a recap of our key events, collaborations, and takeaways: @RobMajteles , Co-Founder and Chairman of Confluence Capital Impact Partners, joined the panel "From Values to Value: Building Climate Investment Strategies That Deliver Both Impact and Returns". Rob’s talk received a fantastic reaction and uplifting affirmation, with attendees praising his ability to "cut through the BS and bring clarity" to climate investing. 👏 Special Mentions & Panel Collaborations @abbasthashmi : A special shoutout to Abbas for moderating our panel with distinction. Abbas captured the core takeaway that allocators evaluate financial underwriting over activism—and that the fastest-moving climate deals lead with the return case built first. Christoph Sonnen: Special mention to Christoph (CEO at LEAD, backed by adidas), who shared inspiring insights on ocean entrepreneurship, next-generation global family capital, and combining investment with community to advance the human condition. 🤝 Growing Relationship with Cary Krosinsky Our team is thrilled to be building a closer relationship with sustainable finance pioneer @ckrosinsky (Lecturer at NYU, Harvard, and Yale). We engaged closely around his Climate Week events and the launch of his new book, Transition Momentum, which outlines essential system-thinking frameworks for accelerating global climate action and transition funding. 💡 Our Core Philosophy At Confluence Capital, our core message is clear: climate impact and financial returns are embedded and inseparable. We reject zero-sum thinking in favor of a positive-sum mindset, focusing on public equities driving the industrial energy transition, grid modernization, and distributed energy resources. 🎧 Tune Into Rob's Podcast Feature! Want to dive deeper into our theory of change and why active optimism is a competitive edge?
