November, 2020

ACT4Green stands for Accelerating CleanTech for Green. Under the UK-India Tech Partnership, the British Government has joined forces with the leading green-tech accelerators in India and the UK to deliver an intensive capacity development programme culminating in a pitch event with great opportunity to access new investment.

We are here to accelerate Indian and UK clean tech start-ups by strengthening their strategy and fundraising prospects, understand how to access new markets, and opportunity to access new investment.

WHAT CAN THE ACT4GREEN PROGRAMME DO FOR ME?

ACT4Green intends to accelerate Indian and the UK startups by helping them:

  • Gain expertise in business development, market analysis and tech innovation.
  • Become investment-ready.
  • Access opportunities to win investment from venture capitalists.

WHO SHOULD APPLY?

  • We are looking for both Indian and UK cleantech start-ups who will participate as one cohort.

‘Clean tech’ for this programme covers new technologies that enable innovations in smart grid and energy storage, green transportation, and energy efficiencies in cities, buildings and industries (aka ‘smart technologies’).

  • Start-ups working in these domains will also be required to demonstrate a digital technology component in their solutions to qualify for the program.
  • We have a special focus on promoting green transportation/mobility technology. Startups from Maharashtra are encouraged to apply.
  • Women-led startups are encouraged to apply.
