Climate finance
climate tech finance
Climate transition risk
Sustainable policies
Simon Gatzweiler is a PhD candidate at KAIST with a background in entrepreneurial finance and industrial engineering. His interest in sustainable finance is informed by hands-on experience at several impact-driven climate tech startups, giving him practical insights into sustainable business models.
His strong interest in sustainable finance drives his research, where he dives into the dynamics of transition risk, energy shifts, and the impact of policies on the climate tech sector—especially within private equity and venture capital.

Do-i Kim has conducted research on deep learning–based weather forecasting. She has primarily focused on precipitation prediction using diverse datasets, including satellite, observation, and numerical weather prediction model data. She has also participated in studies aimed at detecting and assessing hydrometeorological disasters resulting from such phenomena. During her doctoral studies, she aims to explore technologies that reflect climate policy and financial contexts while deepening her understanding of the social and economic impacts closely linked to technology.

Scope 3 emissions
Student Kim Min-gyu mainly conducted research on direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions at home. The degree study of student Kim Min-gyu conducted a decomposition analysis of indirect greenhouse gas emissions changes in the home sector over time by driving forces. Currently, we are conducting research on the calculation and consistency of greenhouse gas emissions in scope 3 generated in the supply chain of each domestic industry.
