The Cleantech Challenge originated in London in 2009 as a student competition designed to nurture innovative ideas. The competition process propels those ideas to a level where the concept can start to attract funding. For the first time this competition has a Dutch counterpart and after completion of the Dutch CTC the winning team has the opportunity to compete at the international finals in Lond

on. The Cleantech Challenge provides entrepreneurial students first and foremost with an incredible opportunity to test the strength and viability of their start‐up concept on both a local and international platform. The new ventures are based on real technological opportunities and require the best of both worlds in students. In order to create a powerful team the competition encourages students with technical and business backgrounds to integrate their experience and expertise. As teams ascend through the competitions rounds they will receive guidance from professionals of top companies and consultants to perfect their start‐up concept and improve the skills necessary to market innovative ideas. For the students this guidance can provide them with the edge they need to succeed as aspiring entrepreneurs. Every start‐up needs funding and the prize money can provide students with some of the means to further the development of their business venture on the market. The world is in need of a technical revolution to solve many problems and often the solutions come from young minds. But clean and green innovations require more than just a great technical innovation in order to be transformed into a successful new venture. This competition provides the platform for those young minds to grow and shape their ideas and give them the best fighting chance to succeed.

DUTCH CLEANTECH CHALLENGE WINNER 2021!

Congratulations FLUX for winning the first place in yesterdays finals!
The team behind FLUX realized that one of the most important issues we will face in the upcoming decades is water scarcity. Keeping this in mind they came up with a technology creating awareness and transparency on water consumption. With FLUX they want to change people’s perception of water consumption, which will be the first step towards reducing water consumption. FLUX will represent the Netherlands in the Global CleanTech Challenge next month …

To all, thank you for participating in this years Dutch CleanTech Challenge! We have seen inspiring and diverse ideas in the field of sustainability, innovation, and the environment. Every team can be very proud of their accomplishments in the last couple of months. We want to urge every one of you to continue with your sustainable and entrepreneurial spirit!

A big thanks also goes to all the jury members and workshop hosts, who collaborated with us. The teams have learned valuable skills and lessons from your workshops and feedback, that will stay with them forever.
