🌍Behind the Scenes at ClimateLaunchpad: It’s More Than Just a Competition🌱 At first glance, ClimateLaunchpad might seem like a simple competition for green start-ups. But behind the scenes, it's so much more. It's a journey of growth, mentorship, and innovation. 💡 Through hands-on bootcamps and workshops, start-ups dive deep into understanding their market, building a sustainable business model, and measuring their climate impact. 📊 They also gain access to a global network of fellow entrepreneurs, mentors, and investors that extends far beyond the programme. Our finalists have already come a long way, and now that they’ve made it this far, they’re determined to win in two weeks. But still, the journey matters more than the prize. #Entrepreneurship #Sustainability #ClimateAction #GreenBusiness #Startups #Innovation #CLP2024

Over ons
ClimateLaunchpad is the world’s smartest green business ideas competition. Our mission is to unlock the world’s cleantech potential that addresses climate change. The competition creates a stage for those ideas. ClimateLaunchpad is part of the Entrepreneurship offerings of @EIT Climate-KIC. We are people determined to address the negative impacts of climate change by way of innovation and invention. We are dead serious about tackling climate change. And we’re convinced that investing in ideas and entrepreneurs is the way to go about it. A green and clean future demands thousands of innovations challenging the current business models. There are a lot of great ideas out there for improving lives and reducing emissions. Some of them remain in the idea stage, never taking the next step and becoming viable. Some of them need an extra push. They need a bit of mentoring. Some training. The benefit of experience. They need lessons from entrepreneurial failures and successes. With coaching and support, a number of ideas can become reality. Read more about our competition on our website: http://climatelaunchpad.org/

🌱Greening the future: Start-ups that inspire sustainable living - 2024's second #trend🌱 Not every green start-up is focused on the next big tech breakthrough. This year, we’ve been inspired by a wave of submissions centred around education, awareness, and empowering people to take sustainable action in their daily lives. From providing climate #education to children and adults, to making #sustainable living more accessible with #DIY solutions, these start-ups are addressing the crucial question: How can we make sustainable behaviour the norm? Whether it's urban gardening, rewarding sustainable actions, or shining a light on greenwashing, these innovative ideas are paving the way for a greener future. And even if awareness seems like just a drop in the ocean, every contribution counts in the fight against climate change. What are you going to do to live more sustainable?

🌍 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗲? 𝗜𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲-𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗹𝘆? 🌍 This year, we’ve been blown away by the innovative #ideas from sustainable entrepreneurs, particularly in the #fashion sector. From turning agricultural waste into vegan leather to extending the life of our favourite garments, it's clear that the fashion industry is ready for a shake-up. With the environmental impact of fast fashion and clothing production at an all-time high, it's inspiring to see so many creative solutions that could change the way we think about clothing. Our applicants have focused on three key areas: 1. Sustainable Production: Discovering new methods to produce fashion items in an eco-friendly way, including biodegradable vegan leather and energy-efficient dye alternatives. 2. Recycling Discarded Clothing: Transforming old garments into new materials, such as repurposed jeans or even bricks and tiles. 3. Extending Garment Lifespan: Promoting repair services, clothing swaps, and second-hand platforms to keep clothing in use longer. #Sustainability #FashionInnovation #GreenEntrepreneurship #CircularEconomy #ClimateLaunchpad #CLP2024
