Think of us as a virtual incubator for clean technologies, and a resource to scientists, inventors, entrepreneurs and investors interested in new technologies in cleantech. The cleantech sector is global, with no geographical center of gravity... so we've created one on the web.

 

We welcome new technologies across the energy and cleantech sector: solar and photovoltaics, ethanol and biofuels, fuel cells, batteries, combustion, carbon, IT, alternative energy, wind, geothermal, renewable power, water, environment, energy efficiency, or any other green technology.

 

Find an investor or executive interested in your area, post your resume or business opportunity, dive into 10 years of proprietary research, or ask our experts for advice or help.

• The only place on the web where with one click you can submit business plans to every cleantech investor in the database.
• 600+ Research Briefs on over a decade of technology development in cleantech
• Panel of leading industry experts available to network
• Database of cleantech investors, incubators, and angel networks
• Analysis and commentary from Cleantech Blog, named one of the 50 Best Business Blogs by the London Times

 

CleanTech.org is backed by a powerful, custom designed database engine, making it the only place in the world where you can do one-click submissions to any number of investors, incubators, angel networks, and investment conferences for energy and clean technology.

 

Our mandate is to be the access point for the growing number of individuals and companies seeking to become involved in the sector. We seek to allow these participants to develop networks with each other, and to access information and resources to facilitate commercialization of clean technologies through an interactive experience.
