Anthos Preview: Causal AI for Climate Decisions

As the impacts of climate change intensify, they are increasingly interacting, compounding, and propagating across systems. We’re bringing together a select group of investors, practitioners, policymakers, and founders for a working salon on climate and causality, exploring how causal modeling can help us understand these interconnected challenges and identify where interventions can have the greatest impact. Much of the knowledge needed to address these challenges already exists, but it is scattered across disciplines, institutions, data, and expertise. Anthos brings it together into transparent, auditable causal models that show how systems behave, how risks and interventions propagate, and how different actions may play out before capital or policy is committed. Built for capital allocators, investors, philanthropies, and policymakers, Anthos uses neuro-symbolic AI to turn scientific literature, data, reports, and domain expertise into equation-based simulation models. Over the evening, five partners will share how they are using this decision infrastructure to generate actionable insights in the real world. Averting the Next Financial Crisis: Climate Contagion in Real Estate — Robin Castelli, Anthos advisor and former Head of Climate Transition Risk Modeling at CitibankBuilders, insurers, investors, and regulators each see only their link in the chain that turns climate risk into financial risk — hazard to insurance withdrawal to unmortgageable property to municipal collapse. Anthos traced the full contagion pathway in one model, so the cascade can finally be stress-tested end to end. How Can We Accelerate FOAK Deployment for Climate? — Mo Niknafs, Anthos advisor and co-founder of Mark 1First-of-a-kind climate projects stall not on one barrier but on a cascade of interlocking risks — technical, operational, financial, regulatory — and how they compound is poorly understood. Anthos mapped that deployment cascade to find the arrest points where a single intervention collapses the most downstream risk. What Makes Climate Solutions Investable — From Ships to Cities— Mehrad Yaghmai, Cool Climate Collective / Fifth WaveThe technologies needed for a more resilient, lower-carbon economy already exist — the challenge is understanding where they can create value and scale. Anthos is working with Cool Climate Collective’s Fifth Wave fund to model the investment case for emerging maritime technologies, while also exploring how financing, partnerships, and climate interventions can make cities more resilient. Who Will Own the Energy Infrastructure of the Next Economy? — Candice Ammori, Climate VineThe next decade will decide which legal and institutional models govern water, energy, land, and digital infrastructure. Starting with energy, Anthos mapped how different utility architectures and ownership structures shape behavior — and where the leverage sits for building systems resilient enough to hold long-term public value. Expect a genuine mix in the room — investors, practitioners, policymakers, founders — and an evening of interesting, provocative conversation, along with drinks and light bites.We'll set you up with an early access Anthos account while you're there, and if you'd like to try the platform yourself, someone from our team will happily sit with you and walk through it. We would love to have you join us!
