In 2014 ClimateLaunchpad* started out as a green business ideas competition in Europe. The platform offers training and coaching in entrepreneurial skills and is the springboard to successful and scalable cleantech businesses.
As part of the EIT Climate-KIC offerings, the first ClimateLaunchpad event attracted some 200 participants from 10 European countries. In the past 5 years, the competition has grown immensely. This year it accepted a record total of 2,600 business idea applications from 53 countries across all continents.
