نادي Climate Hero فرع أبوظبي في Hub71

The Climate Hero Club Abu Dhabi Chapter brings climate-tech founders, investors and partners together at Hub71 in Abu Dhabi on Thursday 19 November 2026, from 5pm to 8pm. The evening is co-hosted by the Hub71+ ClimateTech Program team and Climate Hero Club, and it is open to the wider community rather than only to programme members.

The theme is a focused one: scaling climate solutions between the Gulf and Asia. If you are building, backing or partnering with climate-tech companies and you care about how money, pilots and growth move between the two regions, this is a practical way to spend an evening on Al Maryah Island.

About the Climate Hero Club Abu Dhabi Chapter

The Abu Dhabi Chapter is a community evening rather than a conference. Hub71 describes itself as a global tech ecosystem championing startup growth from Abu Dhabi, and its Hub71+ ClimateTech Program team is opening the doors to startups, investors, corporates and ecosystem partners for this session.

Climate Hero Club itself is a climate-tech community created by Aquila. It connects climate-tech founders, investors and strategic partners across Asia and beyond, and it focuses on curated networking, ecosystem visibility, founder-investor connections and practical conversations that help climate-tech startups grow into real businesses. Bringing a chapter to Hub71 links that Asian network with the startup community in the UAE capital.

What to Expect on the Night

A panel of investors and founders

The evening opens with a panel discussion featuring two climate investors and two climate founders. The organisers had not named the panellists at the time of writing, so check the official registration page for updates closer to the date.

Three questions on the table

The conversation will look at what makes a climate venture investable, how capital is moving between the Gulf and Asia, and how founders can approach market entry, partnerships and growth across both regions. Each of those is a question many early-stage climate companies are wrestling with, so expect the discussion to stay grounded in real experience.

Open Q&A and networking

After the panel, the floor opens for questions, followed by networking. That second half is where much of the value of an evening like this sits, so it is worth staying for it rather than leaving when the panel ends.

Who It Is For

The organisers say the chapter will bring together startups, investors, corporates and ecosystem partners. In practice, that makes it a good fit for:

• Climate-tech founders looking at the Gulf or Asia as their next market.
• Investors who want to meet founders and hear how capital is flowing between the regions.
• Corporate teams exploring partnerships or pilots with climate startups.
• Accelerators, programmes and other ecosystem partners who support the sector.

You do not need to be part of the Hub71+ ClimateTech Program to attend, as the session is open to the wider community. Registration is required through the official event page.

The Venue: Hub71 on Al Maryah Island

The chapter takes place at Hub71 on the 15th floor of Al Khatem Tower, in Abu Dhabi Global Market Square on Al Maryah Island. Allow a few minutes to reach the right floor when you arrive, especially if you want to catch the start of the panel at 5pm.

One practical point from the organisers: by signing up, you agree that photos and videos may be taken during the evening for promotional purposes. Hub71 may use these across its platforms, including social media, websites and marketing campaigns. If you would rather not appear, it is worth mentioning this to the team on the night.

Visitor Tips

Prepare a short introduction

With startups, investors and corporates in one room, a clear one-line description of what you do and what you are looking for, whether that is capital, pilots or partners, will make the networking hour far more useful.

Come with a question

The open Q&A follows a panel of two investors and two founders, so think in advance about what you would ask them about investability, capital flows or market entry between the Gulf and Asia.

Look up the community first

Climate Hero Club runs a climate-tech startup directory of more than 1,000 companies, ecosystem maps and a podcast highlighting climate-tech leaders. A quick look before the evening can help you spot who you might want to meet.

Register early

Places are booked through the official event page, so secure yours before the date rather than planning to turn up on the night.
