Our Work on Innovation for Sustainability

University-affiliated innovation centers empower young entrepreneurs to foster their big ideas into innovative and feasible products and businesses. The North American EcoInnovation Network provides these centers with access to educational resources, supportive relationships and opportunities for advancement. In addition, through yearly competitions and ongoing support, we help these innovative entrepreneurs find business solutions to their environmental challenges.
