Hosted in collaboration with Tecno International and Geovation,

 this year’s competition will showcase 10 finalists developing ventures that address sustainability challenges through innovation and entrepreneurship. They will pitch their ideas to a panel of sustainability, innovation and entrepreneurship experts for the chance to win one of three awards, with £1,000 awarded to each winning team:

Audience Choice Award

The winning team in each category will also receive a 12-month business and technical mentorship package from Tecno International, as well as introductions to Tecno International’s business partners. In addition, the three winning teams will receive support from Geovation, including a 12-month Geovation membership and tailored technical clinic support with Geovation’s technical team.

The event will conclude with a networking reception, bringing together students, alumni, founders, industry partners and colleagues interested in sustainability, venture development and entrepreneurship.

Join us to hear from the finalists, meet others interested in sustainable innovation, and support the next generation of sustainability-focused entrepreneurs.
