Why the Need?

Climate tech startups have immense potential to create impact, but they face limitations to growth:

Navigating

compliance

Climate and sustainability disclosures are increasingly mandatory for startups operating in certain sectors, particularly when trading with the EU or partnering with global corporations. Startups often struggle to move from compliance requirements to actionable technical and strategic decisions.

Attracting

investment

Investors increasingly expect structured, credible insights into startups’ environmental and social impact, climate relevance, and long-term viability. While early-stage funding may be accessible, growth-stage startups often face challenges demonstrating techno-economic feasibility and deployment readiness, despite the availability of sustainability-focused capital.

Resource

constraints

Many startups lack the time, specialised expertise, or financial resources to undertake rigorous assessments, feasibility studies, and strategic planning - slowing their ability to scale and compete globally.

The SLP Climate Tech Startup Sprint addresses these gaps, providing startups with the expertise needed to thrive in competitive global markets.
