Our CleantechHUB programs are a HUGE success, just ask our amazing climate entrepreneurs and business owners!

My experience at Climathon was very enriching. We worked as a team to develop a composting project using Hermetia illucens, addressing sustainable organic waste management. My team and I had the opportunity to explore the circular economy while collaborating with other participants. It was a valuable opportunity to apply knowledge while acquiring new knowledge and proposing real solutions.

I participated in the Climathon Dominican Republic. It was a wonderful experience, and as a planet lover, I was able to meet extraordinary people with excellent projects and proposals to combat climate change, preserve the environment, and protect our ecosystem. Working on the Zohala team with my colleagues Odet and Freysi allowed me to further enrich my knowledge and develop better ideas. The mentors I met, the entire team, are heroes of the planet. I will continue working for the love of our planet Earth.

I had the privilege of participating in this initiative, which aims to create spaces for designing innovative solutions to combat climate change in cities, offering sustainable alternatives for everyone. The experience was unique and incredibly enriching. I teamed up with business administration professor Luis and students from the same program at the Universidad de la Costa. Although we didn't know each other, we managed to establish an exceptional fit, forming a team full of energy, commitment, and creativity. These types of projects not only open doors to the development of transformative ideas but also teach us the power of collaboration and teamwork. An experience that undoubtedly inspires us to continue building a more sustainable future. 🌱💡
