Climate Launchpad 2025 Global Grand Final (Oct 24)

17/09/2025

Join us at the world’s largest competition for early-stage green business ideas

ClimateLaunchpad (CLP) is the world's largest competition for early-stage green business ideas, launched in 2014. The program supports the development of innovative solutions to combat climate change and accelerate the transition to a more sustainable economy.

In Austria, CLP is run by Thinkubator.earth, an interdisciplinary think tank founded by two WU alumni (our former students). STaR has closely collaborated with the Thinkubator team since its founding—including support for CLP—and we are excited to be involved again this year.

The CLP Global Grand Final will be held for the first time in Vienna on October 24th, as part of the Climate Innovation Festival (CIFE) program.

  • Sustainability innovators from 45+ countries

  • Keynotes

  • Breakout sessions with experts

  • Meeting changemakers, investors, & visionaries
