Why we built ClimeNow LaunchPad
🚀 Welcome to ClimeNow LaunchPad
In ClimateTech and DeepTech, the biggest risk isn’t bad tech.
It’s wasting time chasing the wrong raise — and building too late.
We kept seeing it:
✅ Founders stuck in endless pitch loops
✅ Great companies collapsing from misalignment
✅ Investor meetings full of vision, but no proof of execution
Even in SaaS, it’s hard.
In ClimateTech, it’s brutal.
The cycles are longer. The complexity is deeper. The stakes are higher.
We’ve built companies, raised capital, scaled in chaos — and sat in the rooms where funding decisions are made.
👋 I’m Robert Kellner, the Swiss Army Knife of business building.
I’ve led ClimateTech and IoT ventures for 20+ years, scaling B2C subscription models, hardware-software hybrids, and everything in between.
I’ve been in the data room. I’ve seen great companies miss because they didn’t execute the way investors expected.
🧠 I’m Julia Kellner-Long, the Process & Story Architect.
With 15 years in B2B tech and SaaS, I design structure where chaos lives.
I simplify complexity, align teams around strategy, and shape the stories that raise capital and activate growth.
Together, we built LaunchPad — not as advisors, but as operators who were tired of watching great founders fail for the wrong reasons.
We didn’t want another coaching program.
We wanted an engine founders could trust — under pressure, with deadlines, in real funding cycles.
LaunchPad is the founder engine we always needed:
A fast, data-driven way to raise capital and scale the company — in sync.
✅ Investor-ready instantly
✅ Clarity on readiness, gaps, and funding fit
✅ A Masterplan to raise and build in parallel — not in chaos
✅ Scan your investor readiness across 10+ dimensions
✅ Benchmark your KPIs vs Series A/B expectations
✅ Map your capital fit — VC, non-VC, hybrid
✅ Create tactical OKRs aligned with investor milestones
✅ Deliver a readiness report that investors trust
We don’t do fluff.
We do clarity.
✅ Align your leadership team on ambition, execution velocity, and exit
✅ Diagnose and fix risks that kill rounds before they happen
✅ Scale operationally while preserving ownership
✅ Stop reacting. Start leading.
Most founders wait too long.
They show up "almost ready."
Investors see through it.
LaunchPad flips the game.
