His work focuses on integrating climate data into investment decisions, risk analysis, and long-term business planning.

He brings experience across climate technology, financial services, data platforms, and enterprise sales, with a particular interest in using technology to solve complex problems. Before joining Climate X, he worked with Harbr, an external data-sharing and governance platform, helping organizations make better use of data in commercial and operational settings.

He brings a strong builder’s perspective on how to design reliable digital systems, ship AI-powered products, and move from architecture to real-world implementation. His profile is especially relevant for audiences interested in software architecture, applied AI, and the practical side of building scalable products.

His background makes him a relevant voice for conversations about AI engineering, cloud-native product development, and the future of agentic software systems.

Amit Grinvald is a communication strategist and public speaking coach who helps leaders, technical experts, and founders turn complex ideas into clear, compelling narratives.

He has worked with senior leaders from organisations including Microsoft, NVIDIA, Capgemini, and Rolls-Royce, and mentors founders internationally through Google for Startups.

Amit is also the founder of TEDxUNYP, one of Europe's most recognised TEDx events, home to multiple TED Editor's Picks and several talks ranked among the global Top 100.
