The program is seeking startups that can drive regenerative innovation, restore ecosystems, and create a sustainable future. The selected companies will participate in a six-month accelerator program, which includes in-kind services, industry mentorship, science-based storytelling, and connections with corporate leaders and mission-aligned investors.
