Clean Energy Bootcamp
For innovators at/from universities
Clean Energy Bootcamp
In Europe and Africa, startups and innovators are working on new ideas to limit the effects of climate change. Due to their different starting points, startups in Africa and Germany may have different focuses, but they are working towards the same goal: a decentralised renewable energy supply that will also change our economic and social lives.
The Clean Energy Bootcamp brings together (post-)docs and students from four universities in Uganda, Kenya and Germany to collaborate in workshops to further develop their CleanTech innovations.
The aim is not a one-sided transfer of knowledge, but an equal exchange of ideas and solutions for the respective region. The goal: to learn from other local contexts for one’s own startup idea.
