The Climate Tech Challenge is an exciting week-long competition designed to showcase real climate solutions, both existing and new, all that we ask is that you adhere to the program and be climate focused. We have customized the entire process to enable participants with workshops and mentoring from industry experts.
Our goal is to guide teams of entrepreneurs toward producing real world solutions, while experiencing the startup world, developing a new tool set, and meeting climate focused founders, investors, and mentors. Teams will be judged throughout the competition on relevance, impact, feasibility, and scalability. The week will conclude with a final demo day where the finalist teams get to present their company to a panel of climate focused VC's and fund managers in front of an eager crowd.
Innovators and mad scientists with a core mission of addressing issues related to the climate crisis. Demo Day attendees can range from climate activists, investors, founders, entrepreneurs, students, to literally anyone else interested in climate tech or startups.
90 minutes of free pitch coaching from Pitch 4 Impact worth $500. Includes investor profiles of climate tech investors.
2 hours of strategy consulting from The Briarwood Group.
There are no requirements. We refer to tech as in any technology that can assist in finding actionable climate solutions.
This is a 6 day event with days 1-5 for competitors, which are optional, and Demo Day on Day 6, which is open to the public. Teams work throughout the week to create and improve their due diligence, while judges complete 2 rounds of elimination.
