18 high growth companies from nine countries to present at COP26

The CivTech Alliance is running a Global Scale-Up Programme to help entrepreneurial businesses show how than can tackle major climate change issues

The CivTech Alliance COP26 Global Scale-up Programme brings together eight governments and three academic/not-for-profit institutions across ten countries to provide an access programme in the run up to, and during, COP26 in Glasgow in November.

Three challenges have been set relating to the COP26 goals around environmental resilience, food wastage, and decarbonisation of commercial vehicles.

Two CivTech Scotland alumni are part of the cohort:

Iceni Earth, Edinburgh (www.iceni.earth): an earth tech startup on a mission to empower farmers with digital resources to restore the natural world and fight the climate emergency

The Routing Company, (theroutingcompany.com): partners with cities and communities to unlock the full potential of public transit
