It’s the defining battle of our generation and the next. Whilst Climate Change and terms like ‘climate crisis’ are nothing new, our fight for the planet is in a crucial phase and it’s important that everyone’s thoughts, ideas and efforts are considered. That’s why NatWest are delighted to be hosting our Climate Hackathon in collaboration with 51³Ô¹Ïapp.
Calling on material from the bank’s Business Builder programme, this 2-day, interactive event will deal with real world climate challenges and you, in teams of 5 will create, develop and pitch viable business solutions to these challenges. Not only will you be working at the coal-face of climate innovation, you’ll also go through key entrepreneurial skills like business modelling, pitching, team building and leadership.
As a participant you will learn:
How to effectively construct creative, realistic solutions to complex problems
How to create robust, validated, customer-led business models
How to commercialise new innovations and take them to market
How to construct, write and deliver a great 60-second pitch
