Carbon13 Venture Builder

Carbon13 Venture Builder is an eight-month intensive programme designed for individuals who don't yet have a startup but want to find a co-founder and build a climate-tech venture. The programme brings together 80 determined individuals from the UK and internationally, focusing on technology, science, and business backgrounds. Participants progress through three phases: Teaming (forming co-founders), Validation (business and carbon modelling), and Acceleration (securing investment). Ventures must demonstrate potential to reduce at least 10 million tonnes of CO2e per annum at scale.

Qui peut postuler

Open to individuals from any background who are committed to building climate-tech ventures. No existing startup or idea required. Applicants must be willing to relocate temporarily to Cambridge for the programme's initial phase and form a co-founder team.
