Climate AI and energy transition work
I build and shape products that help organizations reason about climate policy, climate risk, grantmaking, and decarbonization decisions with stronger evidence and better workflows.
Profile
Valentin Lemaire is an AI product and strategy leader based in San Francisco. He works across climate AI, LLM applications, forecasting, decision systems, and business strategy, with a focus on turning complex information into products teams can use.
His recent work spans ClimateWorks Foundation, Climact, and independent product building across climate-risk analysis, policy tracking, multilingual intelligence, and applied AI research.
Focus
I build and shape products that help organizations reason about climate policy, climate risk, grantmaking, and decarbonization decisions with stronger evidence and better workflows.
My work includes LLM-based tools for horizon scanning, policy tracking, structured data access, and knowledge synthesis in settings where clarity and reliability matter.
I operate across product definition, delivery, partnerships, and business context so AI systems create practical value rather than remaining internal demos.
Highlights
Conceived and executed the roadmap for multiple LLM-based products supporting climate and philanthropic decision-making.
Published research on graph generation, forecasting, and temporal modeling at ACML, IDA, and EuroMLSys.
Graduated first in cohort in both engineering degrees at UCLouvain and received the Prince Albert Fund fellowship.
