What we are looking for

The programme is intended for university and research centre spinoffs and early-stage startups capable of offering Climate Tech and sustainability solutions.

We are looking for researchers, scientists and inventors who are committed to identifying new solutions to accelerate the energy transition towards a carbon free model, to make our cities and the ways of moving people and goods more sustainable, to reduce all types of waste towards a model of circular economy that respects our planet.

We still have time to save the future:
change is possible and essential.
