🌳 ClimateU inClimate.com Updates
🎨 Last week, we worked on our landing pages to make it much clearer how to make the most out of inClimate. We updated the landing pages for jobseekers, for employers, and for investors.
🖼️ This week, we’ll update the remaining landing pages (corporates, founders, community access) and work on the onboarding process so that new members know how to connect with whom on the website and in the various community channels.
We’re still working through a big list of product to-dos, but it’s great fun to see it all coming together step by step.
If you have any feedback on the updates - we’re not UX geniuses and I very much love hearing your tips and ideas!
