Founder Bio
Jonathan Lyons
Twenty years in climate-tech and growth strategy.
I built my career at the intersections: between private and public sector, between founders and investors, between policy and product. I’ve led market entry strategy for clean energy companies, designed coalitions across multi-stakeholder ecosystems, advised boards navigating governance under pressure, and served as founding CEO of a climate leadership platform.
Among & Between is the practice I built to hold this work — operating in the connective tissue of the climate economy, where the hard problems and highest-value decisions live.
Credentials:
MBA, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania
