London, UK – 17/10/24 – In a pivotal move to scale the CDR industry, Unbound Summits has announced Unbound Directory & Library—two powerful tools designed to accelerate progress in the carbon removal industry by fostering essential connections and knowledge sharing globally.
Already featuring over 1,250 of the CDR sector's top professionals, the directory goes far beyond any typical social network. Advanced, industry-specific filters enable users to showcase their CDR expertise, explore cutting-edge technologies, and connect with relevant peers, collaborators, and innovators. Notably, users can engage on their own terms, utilising their preferred communication channels—LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Slack, or Email—ensuring meaningful and efficient connections.
The news doesn't stop there; Unbound Library, a dynamic complement to Unbound Directory, is a repository of the latest insights and breakthroughs in carbon removal. Offering podcasts, interviews, expert articles, and deep dives into emerging trends, the library empowers professionals to explore and act on the most pressing issues discussed at the summits and connect with the people generating the ideas that will accelerate our industry. By sharing this knowledge, Unbound is enabling the community to move closer to achieving gigaton-scale carbon removal solutions.
By equipping the global CDR community with these tools, Unbound reaffirms its commitment to driving meaningful, measurable progress in the fight against climate change. Two industry pioneers with an early look at the platform commented:
“I commend Carbon Unbound for this important initiative. Unbound Directory & Library is a great resource that strengthens the connective tissue of the carbon removal industry, fostering collaboration and learning,” said Mathias Avramov, Director of Global Carbon Removal Platform at Climeworks. “By connecting both industry leaders and newcomers, this platform paves the way for collective progress in a fast-evolving ecosystem. We’re happy to support it and contribute to it with the same spirit that drives our Climeworks Pioneers program".
"Technology alone will not scale CDR to climate relevance. More than anything, we need global cross-disciplinary collaboration. The Unbound Directory can help facilitate the connections we will need" said Sebastian Manhart, Senior Policy Advisor, Carbonfuture.
“In collaboration with leading scientists, policymakers, start-ups and other established and emerging actors from around the world, Unbound Library showcases CDR learnings, insights and global intelligence that exemplifies the dogged determination and the impressive scientific and technological credentials of the people, organisations and governments involved.” said Zara Amer, Editor, Unbound Summits. “Our place and significance in this process is to feed the feedback loop. We are committed to producing content that is free of aspirational and dogmatic rhetoric and aim to present that collective intelligence in full, in all its complexities, to the wider ecosystem.”
“We’re incredibly excited to extend the value of events to our new online platform. From enabling people to identify and connect with climate leaders via Directory to amplifying our summit insights to a much larger audience through Library, these tools multiply Unbound’s impact and support us on our mission of facilitating the scale-up of climate industries. We can’t wait to hear your feedback!” said Oliver Katz, CEO and founder of Unbound Summits.
These launches coincide with the debut of a brand-new Unbound Summits website, which will serve as the central hub for information on the summits, its sustainability pledge, and team member information. This cohesive platform is designed to strengthen the community, offering a seamless experience for participants and partners alike. Visit the website for the latest updates and join Unbound on the journey toward a more sustainable future.
