UNICEF Funding Opportunity for Climate Startups

UNICEF Venture Fund

The UNICEF Venture Fund is looking to make up to US$100K in equity-free investments to provide early stage (seed) finance to for-profit technology start-ups that have the potential to address climate change. 

If your startup leverages a frontier technology such as drones, blockchain, extended reality (XR), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML) or novel data science (DS), we are looking for you. If your product is registered in one of UNICEF’s programme countries, is a working prototype, has demonstrated results and is (or could be) open-source licensed, we encourage you to apply. 

Female-founded startups are encouraged to apply.
