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.

Top Voices From 2024:

Felix Krause, Vireo Ventures:

“E-world is one of the leading energy shows in Europe and, over the years, has become a top meeting place for energy-tech startups. I’m truly honored to have been invited to host the startup session again in 2025. I look forward to meeting the companies that are driving decarbonisation in urban areas and helping them connect with the most relevant incumbents in the industry.”

Antti Hämmäinen, Synergi:

"E-world & The Startup Session proved out to be a really valuable place for us to showcase our product in front of a crowd consisting of relevant industry players & potential partners. Can only recommend the session and the event as a whole!"

Hauke Lapschies, Levl Energy:

I can only recommend other start-ups to also apply and take advantage of this great opportunity to quickly get into in-depth discussions and expand the relevant network in the energy industry.”
