Application period for CivTech Alliance Global Scale-up Program extended

Magdalena Hinze Magdalena Hinze | 04.08.2021

Sustainable scale-ups can still apply for the international innovation programme until 09.08.2021. The aim of the programme is the further development of scale-ups with sustainable solutions to overcome the climate crisis. At the end of the programme, the solutions will be presented at the Climate Summit in Glasgow in November 2021.

Floods in North Rhine-Westphalia, fires and heat waves throughout Southern Europe - the effects of the climate crisis are becoming more and more real and visible. We have known for a long time that things cannot go on like this, but we need sustainable concepts that can be built on and with which changes can be initiated.

To this end, eleven governments and institutions from a total of ten countries have now joined forces to offer a programme in the run-up to and during the UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Glasgow this November, in which mature start-ups (scale-ups), with the support of the CivTech Alliance Global Scale-up Programme , will jointly tackle the climate crisis.

Applications are open to all scale-ups from the environment, food use and transport sectors whose ideas offer solutions to overcome the climate crisis.

Within the program, the scale-ups will go through an innovation process where, in addition to numerous networking opportunities, they will gain insights into the international innovation ecosystem and establish contacts with key decision-makers. In addition, the participating scale-ups will have the opportunity to present their further developed solutions at the UN Climate Conference in the context of a demo day.
