Ep 157: "Los Angeles is leading the way to a Clean, Green Economy" with Matt Petersen

Entrepreneurial Thinkers with Rob Ryan

What if saving the planet could also save the economy? Is our move to a greener and cleaner planet inevitable, regardless of the politics of any one era? In this episode of Entrepreneurial Thinkers, Rob sits down with Matt Petersen, CEO of the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI), and long time leader of Climate policy across the United States, and arguably the world, to talk about how the clean green economy is no longer a choice—it’s an inevitable necessity. From rebuilding after our LA wildfires to backing underrepresented founders, Petersen shares how LA is becoming a global hub for clean innovation and investment. Tune in to hear how bold policy, local leadership, and inclusive tech are powering a climate revolution—with real jobs and real impact.
