We deploy climate
solutions at scale
The short intro
Transition Labs is made up of entrepreneurs and doers who are passionate about climate issues and share the vision of pulling the future into the present.
Our story started from David Helgason's insight that favorable circumstances in Iceland could be used to accelerate the world's transition to a more sustainable economy.
We partner with the highest impact climate projects from around the world and help founders deploy and scale in Iceland. We provide legal, technical, commercial, and strategic advice and work hand in hand with Transition and top climate funds with the goal of decarbonising the economy.
