About the award
A climate venture accelerator interview tests both environmental value and commercial viability. Selectors want a clear climate pathway, defensible impact assumptions, evidence of customer demand and a team that understands the operational risks of scaling.
How to prepare
- Draw the chain from your venture's activity to the claimed climate outcome and mark every assumption.
- Compare your offer with the customer's current alternative on cost, convenience and performance.
- Choose impact measures that reflect environmental outcomes rather than sales activity alone.
- Check the programme's official guidance for its current climate themes and selection criteria.
- Identify supply, policy, infrastructure and maintenance risks that could weaken delivery.
Common mistakes
- Using broad sustainability language without explaining the causal path to impact.
- Presenting impact estimates as facts while hiding uncertain assumptions.
- Assuming environmental benefit will create customer demand on its own.
