**The one line version**

ClimateDoor, a Vancouver growth and commercialization firm for energy transition, agriculture and critical resource companies, has acquired Standard Demand Partners, a boutique capital advisory in Manhattan built for the energy transition. SDP founders Conor Wilmot and Liam Howe join as ClimateDoor partners, and ClimateDoor opens its first US office in New York City.

**Why it might matter to your readers**

Companies in energy, agriculture and critical resources rarely stall on technology. They stall between first revenue and project finance. This deal puts both ends of that journey inside one firm, on both sides of the Canada-US border.
