Each country has selected the most promising startups from the accelerator to pitch their business ideas at the Venture Competition in Frankfurt hosted during the Climate Innovation Summit on November 8.
The startups will pitch to a panel of judges who will assess the robustness of their business model, their ability and readiness to scale, as well as their ability to work in partnership with others. The prizes include 80,000EUR for the winner, 50,000EUR for the runner-up plus an additional 10,000EUR for both winners to spend on a communications campaign.

SiOX
SiOx has developed a technology that has made glass-on-metal flexible coating possible, effectively protecting metal from corrosion and fouling.
Heat exchangers gradually lose their performance due to deposits on the heat transfer surfaces (fouling). Fouling lowers the energy efficiency, impedes fluid flow and increases pressure drop across the heat exchanger.
SiOx’s NANOmel silica coating reduces fouling by more than 50 per cent, without reducing the thermal efficiency of the heat exchanger. For the end user, this means better energy efficiency and longer uptime in production lines.
