    Arindam Bhattacharya from Tailwind Futures
    2026/07/07

    Most climate money chases decarbonization while a bigger problem piles up: two thirds of the losses from extreme weather and disasters go completely uninsured. Arindam Bhattacharya spent 30 years at SLB before launching Tailwind Futures to back startups hardening infrastructure, supply chains, and workforce against a changing climate. He argues resilience is a growth story, not just damage control, and walks through a portfolio from corrosion-proof rebar to a material that could replace copper.

    Writing the check is the easy part. The marriage that comes after is what nobody warns founders about until they are five years deep. Mitra Miller, President and Board Member of the Houston Angel Network, gets into what actually makes a startup investable, why she hunts for red flags fast, and how being a founder herself rewired the way she writes checks. Plus where Texas capital needs to go next, why AI is quietly soaking up all the oxygen, and how 25 years reshaped the Houston ecosystem.
