Remote – LandUp – Internship

Passionate about the climate crisis and want experience working alongside Duke alums at a seed-stage startup? LandUp is building a marketplace that delivers land assets into carbon removal, emission reduction and renewables projects. Launched out of Harvard Business School in 2021, the team recently closed $2m of pre-seed funding from NFX, DUMAC and a group of climate-focused angels. LandUp has built a wedge helping institutional buyers source land for nature-based carbon removal, and is now looking for someone to join for a 6-8 week internship to help us with new markets including renewables and emission reduction. We are also open to working with students who would like to structure for-credit internships or independent projects in the fall. We’re looking for somebody with experience/passion for climate and strong research skills. We are based in Denver but the internship can be fully remote and we’re flexible on start date… sooner the better! If you’d like to learn more please send your resume to Tom at tcole@landup.com
