Chris HartshornClimate Tech, Impact and ESG Strategy

Chris works at the intersection of mission–driven, B2B start-ups and unmet needs in key sectors of the global economy.

Until recently he was Chief Commercial Officer at risQ and Founder and Partner at Level 11 Analytics until their joint acquisition by ICE Data Services in December 2021. In those roles, he directed and drove the companies’ entrance and focus on fixed income analytics, across municipal bonds and mortgage-backed securities, and their business development and product strategy for the financial services sector more broadly. These activities include working with the cohorts of buy-side, sell-side, insurers, banks, ratings agencies, and issuer advisory firms, delivering a full suite of climate risk, carbon transition risk, social impact data and financial implications and analyses across an increasing range of asset classes.

He previously directed strategy, product development and delivery as Chief Research Officer of Lux Research, an emerging technology subscription intelligence service to hundreds of the world’s most innovative companies and agencies; and as Chief Technology Officer at Callaghan Innovation, the New Zealand Government’s innovation agency, which included supporting and developing the country’s vibrant FinTech and GovTech start-up communities.

He brings first-hand experience in developing and growing information services businesses and commercializing multidisciplinary solutions drawing from physical, life and data sciences.
