CLIMATE LAUNCHPAD 2019.
We invite you to participate in the CLIMATE LAUNCHPAD competition – the world’s largest competition of green business ideas. Our mission is to focus the potential of clean technologies on combating climate change. There are many great ideas for countering climate change and reducing harmful emissions. Some of these ideas will always leave only ideas, never make the next step and become sustainable. Some need additional pressure, some lack mentoring, some entrepreneurial knowledge and experience. Thanks to our support and teaching, good ideas can become reality.
Who can participate? Anyone who has a promising idea of clean technologies/green business: students, researchers, consultants, engineers, public organizations and start up to 1 year old. An innovative idea can come from renewable energy sources, new approaches to food production, urban mobility, or any other area that contributes to mitigating climate change.
Candidates with the best ideas will be invited to attend the Climate Launchpad program to support the development of ideas and start their own business:
Bootcamp on the launch of a business, with the participation of an international expert from the Netherlands 12-13.06.2019. in Belgrade,
Six Intensive training for personal skills development, presentation skills and business model development in the period July-August 2019 in Belgrade,
Participation in the National Finals 12.09.2019. in Belgrade,
Personal mentoring and support by domestic trainers.
Thanks to the support of EIT Climate-KIC, the winners of the National Finals will participate in the grand finals that will be held in Baku in Azerbaijan in early November 2019, where they will have the opportunity to present their ideas to numerous potential investors. The best players of the Grand Finals will receive cash prizes in the amount of 2,500-10,000 Eur.
