  • Yes, we welcome any level of experience because this programme is the best way you can gain experience in Climate Entrepreneurship!. The first week is fully dedicated to people to build a team and find an idea to work on. We will also provide plenty of resources and a personal mentor to bridge the experience gap.

  • If you are already experienced and already have an idea, then this programme is the best way to bring that idea to the next level. Your personal mentor will guide you in developing a valuable product and raising investment. You will also meet and network with leaders in Climate coming from our pool of mentors, partners and sponsors.
    Finally, you will have the chance to pitch your company to investors and receive follow on investment.

  • Mentors are leaders in Climate that come from companies and institutions like Imperial College, Cambridge, Google X, Entrepreneurs First and more.

    Your team will be assigned a personal mentor who will support you in developing your idea until the final demo day. They will be your first point of contact and you should make full use of their experience, knowledge and network!

    Also, it’s mentors who will pick the team to support during the Idea Challenge based on their interest. Therefore, make sure to reach out to them before and come up with an interesting idea to captivate your favourite mentor.

    List of mentors to be added here.

  • During the programme, you will be required to attend on average 3.5 events per month. The rest is time that you will put in to build your company. We believe that to build a discrete product to pitch to investors in June you should put at least 5 hours a week.

    • bi-weekly Demo Cafès (remote) in which your team will pitch your company updates and get feedback from all mentors

    • monthly workshops to build your Climate Entrepreneurship skillset
