Questions?

Not Sure Which to Choose?

Choose the Fellowship if:

You are 16-24, interested in starting a green business, and want structured learning, mentorship, and peer support over 10 weeks. You may or may not have a venture idea yet.

Choose LCAW if:

You already have a climate venture (any stage) and want to pitch it to investors and mentors at a live event in London. You are ready for direct engagement with capital and partners.

You can apply to both. Many Fellowship fellows go on to pitch at convenings. Contact us if you have questions.
