The world's most promising climate technologies shouldn't die between the lab and the market. Climate Solutions Prize is a climate innovation platform that arms startups and researchers with the funding, global visibility, and strategic connections they need to move from proof-of-concept to real-world deployment — fast. Since 2020, we've awarded $12M+ in prizes and our winners have unlocked $111M+ in follow-on capital.
Climate Solutions Prize connects climate technology innovators directly with the investors, industry partners, policymakers, and decision-makers who can accelerate their path to market. Through competitive prizes, high-visibility pitch events, and structured ecosystem engagement, our participants gain something no grant can buy — credibility, momentum, and a direct line to the capital that scales solutions.
Climate progress demands more than good ideas — it demands the right connections, validation, and conditions to scale. Climate Solutions Prize brings researchers, startups, investors, industry leaders, and policymakers into the same room with one shared objective: move the most promising climate technologies from development to adoption, from pilot to deployment, and from potential to measurable impact.
