Call for Startups 2025
Decarbonising Urban Space: Call for Startups Shaping the Future of Cities
Rapid urbanisation dominates future plans for sustainable infrastructure. As migration towards cities is expected to continue rising, how can we meet the subsequent demand for energy and sustainable infrastructure as part of the transition to electrified cities? Our answer is innovation. In this context, startup culture is a crucial building block in developing a decarbonised urban future.
Are you working on technologies that support renewable energy, improve energy efficiency, or enhance smart infrastructure?
Then the E-world Call for Startups 2025 is the perfect opportunity for you!
The event is completely free of charge. It will take place in cooperation with our program partner Vireo Ventures on February 11, 2025 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Future Forum.
Be part of it and collaborate with established companies in the field of decarbonising cities!
Submissions can be made until December 6, 2024 via our form. Please make sure to submit your idea in English.
Please note: We have special requirements for participating in our Call for Startups, which you find below.
