Cleantech Open

Cleantech Open is a non-profit organization that runs the world's oldest and largest cleantech startup accelerator program. Its mission is to find, fund, and foster entrepreneurs with ideas to solve environmental and energy challenges. Through its annual accelerator, it provides early-stage startups with mentorship, training, networking opportunities, and access to investors. The organization awards prizes that can include cash grants and seed capital investments in the form of convertible notes. Some regional chapters, like Cleantech Open West, are programs of the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI).
