Kidderminster Shuttle:

Last year, over 40 world leaders committed to the ‘Glasgow breakthroughs’ at COP26 - a series of commitments agreed to speed up development of clean technologies to meet 2030 Climate Pact targets.

These ambitious targets have implications for businesses throughout the supply chain and create huge opportunities and risks across every industry. From construction and manufacturing to transport, leisure and agriculture, companies will need to adapt existing products, processes and technology to address this new agenda and most will require support and assistance to do so.

That is why BetaDen, in conjunction with Wyre Forest District Council and Worcestershire County Council, has launched BetaDen Cleantech Bootcamp and Workshops. An industry first supported by the UK Community Renewal Fund, this four-month project is bringing leading lights from the Cleantech industry to North Worcestershire to share their expertise with local companies, help organisations identify what they need to change and how, and encourage Cleantech innovators to develop solutions for the real decarbonisation challenges facing local businesses.

Starting with four, one-day workshops, the project will help local businesses understand how they can most effectively bring NetZero to the heart of their commercial strategy, what the supply chain drivers for decarbonisation are, how digital transformation can deliver major sustainability gains, and what companies of all sizes can do to innovate in support of decarbonisation.

Eight organisations will then take part in a 60-day Cleantech bootcamp, supported by industry specialists, mentors and commercial experts, to help them develop their Cleantech ideas, before  the programme culminates in Dragons’ Den-style pitch and showcase to potential customers, partners and investors.
