California
Growth-stage. Must have at least a commercially viable prototype, but most already have market presence outside of our region.
2019
Must have a market-ready or implemented solution and California as a high priority market. Also must be focused on the built environment and/or its infrastructure as it relates to net zero energy and carbon as well as water (which we remind our community takes energy to move and process), and waste.
We are a non-profit, with services to our companies heavily subsidized by our sponsors and members. As a benefit to our cohort members, they pay between $0 (sponsor-supported scholarship) and $3,000 for program participation. We also offer fee-based services for consulting, event development/hosting, and pilot project management.
