Cleantech Forum Asia, Singapore, 8-9 October 2019

The Opportunity

Apply to present at the 2019 Cleantech Forum Asia and get the chance to meet a wide range of investors and corporations. Accepted companies will be offered the opportunity to be part of the international Innovation Company Showcase.

After our successful inaugural Cleantech Forum Asia last November, we are excited to be returning to Singapore with our 2nd annual Cleantech Forum Asia on 8-9 October 2019. This Forum’s uniqueness is as a meeting point between our local, regional (ASEAN region and Asia Pacific more broadly), and global networks of entrepreneurial companies, investors and corporations, concerned with the future of energy, power, mobility, waste and more.

Asia is hungry for innovation and is investing in cleantech solutions that can solve Asian environmental challenges and provide global competitive industrial advantage.

More than 1 in 3 companies from Europe and North America within our Global Cleantech 100 have an Asian investor/partner (up from 1 in 5 two years ago). The majority of new multi-national corporations who have set up open innovation units in the last 2 years have come from the APAC region. Asia, led by China, is becoming a stronger force in start-ups. This is a fertile and receptive environment for the right solutions, but networks and building impactful relationships with those who know their way around is critical.

Why Apply? Who is Eligible?

You are a young company at start-up or scale-up stage with a relevant solution to this region. For 48 hours, you will have the chance to meet a wide range of investors and corporations not normally all together in one place. We expect representation from Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, and more.

Feedback from 2018 Participants

"Cleantech Forum Asia was a great occasion to meet the innovators, entrepreneurs, investors, and corporates.... This edition demonstrated the dynamism of the region and the many business opportunities that this sector can offer for the years to come. As a cleantech/fintech start-up, we found with this event a great forum to engage with the ecosystem and accelerate our development."

Participants also said that the Forum was 'valuable in terms of connections made,' with a 'very knowledgeable' audience already aware of the challenges and potential solutions, allowing for deeper and more interactive conversations.

What to Expect

The aims of the Forum are to convene the only truly international conference focused exclusively on cleantech innovation in Asia, and provide cleantech stakeholders across the globe an annual opportunity in Asia to exchange viewpoints and to learn, meet and do deals.

The Forum will showcase leading innovations relevant to Southeast Asia and APAC more generally to investors and corporate partners interested in young, emerging and potentially fast-growth companies.
