Yachting Ventures and Galaxia Boats have announced their partnership on an initiative to discover and support startups working on Cleantech solutions to protect the blue economy.
As part of the GALAXIA Interstella Conference (a part of the Galaxia Boat Show happening at Marina de Lagos from 12–14 May 2023), Yachting Ventures will be providing a space for four to five startups to showcase their CleanTech solutions to a panel of investors and industry leaders.
The pitching competition will be judged by national and international investors who are experts in the sector and are actively seeking investment opportunities in this space.
Founder of Yachting Ventures, Gabbi Richardson explains, “Portugal is emerging as an innovation hub for startups building sustainable products and services within the blue economy. We are seeing more investors and funds present in Portugal, and we look forward to bringing stakeholders together to spark ideas and collaborations during the GALAXIA Electric Boat Show. The decarbonisation of the global economy is upon us, and the electric market is booming. By partnering with GALAXIA, we hope to accelerate the adoption of Cleantech technologies by giving startups a platform to shine, pitch and ultimately find investment. We encourage local angel investors to get involved, come along and hear the startups’ pitch – it’s going to be fun!”
The deadline for applications is 31 March.
