Climate KIC Greece programmes
EIT Climate-KIC Accelerator
EIT Climate-KIC Accelerator (https://www.climate-kic.org/programmes/entrepreneurship/accelerator/ ) is the only EU acceleration programme focused on climate impact by cleantech commercialisation. This year, 7 start-ups are supported through both financial schemes and mentoring. The successful start-ups can be seen below:
-
Cyrus: A Demokritos spin-off working on hydrogen technologies and designing non-mechanical high-pressure H2 compressors using metal hydrides
- Citipost: Innovative waste and data management platform focusing on smart cities and sustainability through recycling
- Cargoshare: An automated freight brokerage services platform which results in a more transparent market, leading to less communication friction, while resulting to reduced emissions by freight ships traveling empty
- Parity: A two-sided Financing Platform, that makes Greentech investing accessible to retail investors and small funds
- Trustporter: A convenient, trust-centered and inexpensive system for shipping & transportation needs - designed to match requests to transfer goods or transport people, with other people that happen to travel along the requested routes anyway
- Enaleia: Educate, motivate, organize and track the fishermen, so as to be able to collect plastic from the sea through their bi-catch.
- Shallows: Zero-footprint architecture based on natural raw materials, using biological mechanisms as a living creature with a highly efficient life-cycle regarding sustainability, energy consumption and CO2 emissions Pioneers into practice
