Over the past two years, Dirk Singer has profiled 100+ sustainable aviation and mobility startups through articles, podcasts, and in-depth case studies. This work revealed a critical pattern: while billions flow into climate tech, most startups fail not due to bad technology, but because they can't navigate the "three valleys of death", the funding and operational chasms between lab, pilot, and commercial scale. As Head of Sustainability at SimpliFlying and co-author of Sustainability in the Air, Dirk has developed pattern recognition for what separates successful climate ventures from those that collapse despite promising technology.

Adam Wallin started his studies wanting to be a biologist and studying how the different species of nature work and interact. However, once he had reached his Bachelor's degree, he realised that most of the species on Earth only really interact with one species - humankind, and therefore, the best chance we have to protect them is to change how we as humans act. Since then, his focus of study has been on communication and behavioural science focusing on how and why we act as we do in relation to climate change. In his current role as Head of Climate Dialogue for We Don't Have Time he helps companies and organizations maintain an open stakeholder dialogue about their climate work.
