Submit your ideas for reducing carbon emissions
The Low Carbon Entrepreneur is a competition run by the Mayor of London and sponsored by Citi Foundation to find fresh new ideas to cut carbon emissions and give students employability skills. The winning idea will also receive £20,000 to develop the idea and bring it to market. All applicants can choose to be considered for an internship with Citi.
Your idea
Your idea should be original and practical. You should also be clear about how you plan to develop your idea and ultimately turn it into reality. Remember that carbon is emitted from pretty much every action you take everyday - the way you travel, what you eat and what it is packaged in, the water you use, and the clothes you buy. Could you find a better and smarter way?
Remember, the simplest ideas are often the best.
It’s open to current students and recent graduates (2015) from London universities and colleges. To enter, you must be over 18 on 30 March 2016. You can enter as an individual or as a team.
So, if you think you have the next big idea to cut carbon emissions, submit it now.
