At BITS Pilani, one of India's premier technology institutes, a group of 48 passionate students came together with a shared vision: to tackle some of the most pressing environmental challenges through innovative, market-driven solutions.
The goal was to help each of these 14 student-led teams get their climate-focused startups off the ground. The diverse projects covered a range of sectors, from waste management and circular economy solutions to clean energy and sustainable agriculture technologies.

Through activated mentorship, the students were able to share their stories, showcase their business plans, and explain the impact their startups would have on both the environment and local communities.
With big dreams and limited resources, the need for ClimateFundr was very clear. How could these young, driven innovators with big ideas access the funding they needed to launch their climate-positive startups?
