Techstars and The Nature Conservancy announce the 2019 Class of Techstars Sustainability Accelerator

Techstars Newsroom

Excerpt from the article:

Today ten companies from around the US and Mexico are joining us in Denver, Colorado for an intensive three-months where they will accelerate their companies, and their impact, to create a more sustainable future for us all. Rooted in hope, urgency, and action, these venture scale companies are enabling a world where people and nature can thrive together.

Inspired by the success of last year’s inaugural program, our companies continue to be aligned with The Nature Conservancy’s core focus of tackling climate change, providing food and water sustainably, building healthy cities, and protecting our land and water. In The Science of Sustainability TNC describes ways to balance economic growth with resource conservation over the next 30 years, and these ten companies are the embodiment of those strategies.

Over the next 13 weeks we will surround these entrepreneurs with mentors, coaches, and investors from the Techstars network along with conservation scientists and subject matter experts from The Nature Conservancy. All of this wouldn’t be possible without the amazing support of our Denver and Boulder Startup Communities. The crescendo of our program, Demo Day, will take place on October 30th, 2019 in downtown Denver.
