Deadline Extended to Nov. 9: Apply to Harvard’s Climate Startup Incubator
The Harvard Climate Entrepreneur’s Circle, a selective incubation program for high-potential ventures working to address climate change, is now accepting applications for the 2024 cohort.
As a Climate Circle venture, you’ll gain access to world-class coaching, legal counsel, warm connections to industry leaders, and a peer group of ventures that are all working on innovative solutions to tackle climate change.
Applications are being accepted through Nov. 9, 2023, for consideration. Selected ventures will be notified in mid-December, and orientation will be held in early January. The Climate Circle program is fully online, so ventures can participate from anywhere.
Eligibility
Climate Circle is open to for-profit and non-profit ventures founded by a Harvard affiliate, including Harvard students, alumni, faculty, and staff. Ventures that are admitted into the program may have achieved some of these milestones: active users, written partnerships, funding/donations, or established intellectual property.
