A climate emergency is here and now. Icecaps are melting. Fish are
drowning.Forests are burning. We are choking. Come and do something about
it.
Hello!
It's the beginning of a new year, a new decade and a new sense of urgency.
The timing couldn't be more apt for me to invite you to Y3K: Planet Lost &
Found
<https://dyscoapp.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9924fe7188bf3320f63765733&id=193e82fecf&e=a1de0ae290>
at Pioneer Hall in Mumbai on 8th February 2020. We want to bring together
all those in our community and beyond, who care about a better future for
our planet. The scale of these challenges are beyond any of our individual
efforts, which is why we want to help you discover each other and join
hands, so we can multiply the possibilities for impactful innovations,
creative campaigns and powerful movements.
*What's Y3K: Planet Lost & Found about? *
*Icecaps are melting. Fish are drowning. Forests are burning. Cities are
flooding. We are choking. A climate emergency is here and now. This is no
time to point fingers. It’s the time to come together. It’s time to pivot. *
Y3K is a call to renew, regenerate and regrow what we have lost. We are
envisioning a vibrant future: one where humans, technology and nature live
in symbiotic harmony. This is a celebration of the deep passion, commitment
and innovation exhibited by diverse and determined people, to protect and
preserve the wonder and biodiversity of our planet. Let’s step into the new
decade with renewed focus. Together.
Y3K is an acknowledgement of the challenges that we currently face. An
homage to the strength and fragility of nature. An organic coming together
of synergistic ideas in areas of animal welfare, renewable energy,
sustainable food and fashion, co-living, urban planning and circular
economy.
*What's the format of the event? *It's a day long event from 10AM to 10PM.
There will be talks, panel discussions, film screenings, pechakucha,
workshops, installations and a networking fair for you to discover
likeminded people including policy experts, journalists, technologists,
content creators, researchers, startups and more. We've curated a diverse
group of people to address these challenges and issues from unique
perspectives and share their insights, question established practises and
propose solutions. Others will be showcasing their concern, efforts and
sentiments creatively - through art, music, and more.
*Pitch-a PechaKucha powered by Lightbox*
PechaKucha means ‘chit-chat’ in Japanese, and this 20x20 presentation
format got popularised as a spontaneous and visual format of storytelling.
Dysco’s version, Pitch-a PechaKucha is for 8-10 talented people to pitch
their world-changing ideas, giving audiences 6 minutes + 40 seconds to
decide if they want to collaborate, join or invest in each pitch-er. It’s a
chance to hear about incredible innovations, in a high-energy setting. Both

& Climate Launchpad are focussed on supporting the emerging innovation
ecosystem around climate and sustainability. To further that goal, at least
one of the participants in this segment will get automatic admission into
the Climate Launchpad India

accelerator in 2020.
*Clients & Collaborators Fair*
We’ve put a spin on the concept of a regular ‘Careers Fair’. We're offering
a dedicated space and time where you can market and advertise that you’re
looking for new business relationships. This is an opportunity to network
with experts and enthusiasts in your field, tell them about the work you do
and find new collaborators, clients, and professional partnerships. Here
you can expect to meet experts who focus on climate consciousness,
environmental awareness and sustainability: freelance writers, researchers;
policy experts; content creators; sustainable chefs; eco-friendly startups;
and investors too.
