We’ve had the privilege of working with some of the most exciting companies reimagining city life - from startups improving mobility to accelerating the energy transition to enriching our urban environments in creative ways.
Cohort 10 companies are turning home appliances into distributed energy resources, transforming shipping and logistics into closed loop systems, improving battery recycling, building more resilient supply chains, and mobilizing talent for a climate positive world.
This Demo Day offers a window into a brighter future, and provides accredited investors a chance to meet Founders from Limeloop, Climatebase, Partsimony, Phuc Labs and Plentify who will dig into their unique solutions, discuss customer traction, and respond to audience questions.
5 years and 10 cohorts is a milestone to celebrate - we hope you’ll join us.
