Innovation with Energy.

Start-up Innovation

Start-ups can be a very efficient way to transform ideas or technology into marketable products or life saving innovation when thinking about the protection of our environment. Corporations often lack the ability to innovate and change fundamentally whereas start-ups can quickly adopt new approaches, mindsets and requirements from a globalized world. One of these requirements is to live in harmony with our Environment whilst at the same time maintaining our standards of living. Technology and Start-ups can help overcome the current gap.

Therefore we support the development of Energy, Cleantech and Sustainability start-ups in many ways:

• Coaching and Mentoring
• Business Modelling and Fundraising
• Marketing and Sales
• Energy and Utility Market Expertise
