This follows when the Dutch government recognized StartupBootcamp’s performance in early February and awarded them one hub grant to them to promote their efforts in the growth of innovative businesses.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres revealed that 2021 is an important year for climate change and in a recent briefing to UN member states:
“The world is leaving its goal in staying within the 1.5-degree limit of the Paris Agreement. This is why there is a need for more ambitions, more ambitions regarding mitigation, more ambitions regarding adaptation, and financial ambitions.” Guterres said.
The global green green technology and sustainability market is projected to grow from $11.2 billion in 2020 to $36.6 million in 2025, making it clear that companies around the world have this ambition.
The startup industry is also seeing rapid growth in terms of sustainable development. This was primarily due to dramatic growth in impact investments, rising 42% from 2019 to 2020 to $7150 billion.
The Startup Accelerators network is launching its own programme for StartupBootCamp: Sustainability this year.
The director of StartupBootcamp Kauan von Novak said: It’s great to see the Dutch government realised this and awarded us one hub grant. This nationwide support will allow us to continue to accelerate innovative businesses and grow our support network that can tackle sustainability. ”
