ClimateLaunchpad*, the world’s largest green business ideas competition, held its 7th successful edition of the Global Grand Final from September 30th to October 2nd — an event showcasing the year’s best green startups.
I met with Pratap Raju, Founding Partner at the Climate Collective, two years ago at the 2018 ClimateLaunchpad Global Grand Final in Edinburgh.
