Corporate Sustainability Track
The Climatebase Fellowship is the climate career accelerator for mission-driven professionals. The experience includes a 12-week cohort-based program and 1 year of membership in the broader Fellowship community.
As a member of the Corporate Sustainability Track, you will also join our curated sub-community of professionals focused on corporate sustainability, united by a common passion for applying their skills and expertise to help organizations implement sustainable practices and policies.
In 2022, we launched the Fellowship to fulfill a previously unmet need for community and interdisciplinary climate education that many people (including people already working in climate) struggle to obtain on their own. The Fellowship provides a collaborative community-focused educational experience designed to help highly motivated talented professionals accelerate their existing careers in climate or transition into the space.
Learn from and connect with founders, researchers, investors, and subject-matter experts who are developing and scaling real-world applications of climate solutions.
Ask questions and expand your knowledge during interactive fireside chats, deep-dive discussions, and expert panels.
Build connections with leaders and team members of top climate companies, startups, and nonprofits, and get an inside look at what it’s like to work at these organizations.
Join our curated community of talented, mission-driven professionals — your future teammates, thought partners, co-founders, and friends.
Rapidly grow your professional connections through speed networking, breakout sessions, and community-led in-person meetups.
Expand and share your knowledge through group discussions and community activities that facilitate the cross-pollination of ideas, perspectives, and insights.
