Carbon to Value
Year 1 Cohort
In 2021, we launched the Carbon to Value accelerator program, the worlds first and only accelerator dedicated to carbontech. We received over 130 applications from 26 countries, leading to a competitive deliberation and down-selection process.
We welcomed 10 startups to the Year 1 Cohort, each representing a wide variety of carbontech innovations. Throughout, and after, the six-month program, these startups have seen numerous wins with over 70 connections made between companies and CLC members, and cumulatively raising $340M. More information on these members can be found in our C2V Year 1 Cohort Book.
