Catalyzing the
Carbontech Ecosystem
The Carbon to Value (C2V) Initiative drives the creation of a thriving innovation ecosystem for the commercialization of carbontech solutions that capture, convert, and sequester carbon dioxide (CO₂) into valuable end products or services—with the support of corporate partners, government leaders, and experts who help foster a robust network for our startups. In its first three years, the C2V Initiative has supported 26 groundbreaking startups that have raised over $410M in follow-on funding, leading to numerous successful partnerships and 200+ new business relationships, technology advancement, and industry growth.
