Frequently asked questions about our community
4WARD membership is only $120/yr or $12/mo. Considering all the networking, events and $230k in credits, we think that this is a very good deal. We want to ensure everyone can afford to join because we need all stakeholders onboard to tackle climate change.
We have made it our mission to build the world’s largest climate tech community to combat climate change. Our community is global which is key to unlocking major growth and value for you and your company. We promise you that you won’t get the same value from a local or industry specific group.
No, joining doesn’t equal an official endorsement, it just means we're committed to helping you move the world forward!
We need 4WARD to be sustainable if we are going to help drive sustainable change and action for all. Building and running the largest climate & sustainability communities globally costs money and is a lot of effort.
If you are not happy, we will refund you. No questions asked, but we will be very interested in your feedback on how we can improve our offering.
