NorthX Climate Tech has appointed Ka-Hay Law as its new chief investment officer, bringing on someone with over a decade of experience backing climate technologies as they scale from demonstration to commercialization. Law will lead investment strategy, portfolio development, and capital mobilization for the Vancouver-based organization, which focuses on funding hard tech solutions that can transform industries and cut emissions.
Law comes from Telus Global Ventures, where she led climate tech and sustainable agriculture investments and served as a partner at the $100 million Telus Pollinator Fund. In that role, she sourced and executed both early and late-stage investments while establishing what the company describes as rigorous, evidence-based impact management practices. Her work involved identifying companies that could deliver both climate impact and strong business fundamentals—a balance that's increasingly important as climate tech moves from pilot projects to commercial deployment.
Before Telus, Law was vice president of impact and investments at the Lundin Foundation, where she helped transform the organization into a globally recognized impact investor and sustainability partner. Her work has taken her to Africa, Southeast Asia, and Scandinavia, and she brings an engineering background to the investment side. She's built investment strategies, mobilized blended capital, and worked with industry, government, and community partners to deliver economic and climate results.
NorthX CEO Sarah Goodman says Law's appointment strengthens the organization's ability to back high-potential climate technologies. "She knows how to build businesses that matter—companies that deliver climate impact and strong business fundamentals," Goodman said. "Her leadership will accelerate investments that scale technologies, grow Canadian firms, and create lasting economic opportunity."
Law says she sees NorthX at a critical inflection point where climate innovation needs both capital and conviction to scale. "I'm thrilled to join the team and help build the investment strategies and partnerships that will turn Canada's climate ambition into tangible, long-term impact," she said.
Founded in 2021 with backing from the BC government, the federal government, and Shell Canada, NorthX positions itself as a catalyst for climate action, funding technologies that drive deep decarbonization and economic growth. The organization describes its approach as identifying the pivotal moment when potential is high but capital is scarce—turning local strengths into global solutions.
