Start-Up Initiative national hub for Cleantech Open

Start-Up Initiative has become the national hub for the Global Ideas Competition by Cleantech Open.

Cleantech Open is the largest accelerator in the Cleantech Industry based in California; since their founding in 2006, of the nearly 600 companies they have worked with, 80% remain viable today and they have gone on to raise external capital exceeding $660 million.

Thanks to this partnership, the Italian finalist of the last edition of the Cleantech Initiative, Material Recovery System, will participate to the final event in San Josè (CA) on November 8th, 9th. Morevoer other two start-ups, among our finalists, Gr3N and Nadir, have participated to the European final, the European Investor Connect, the last 18-19 October in Vitoria-Gasteiz.
