Youth Ecopreneurs pitch climate start-ups at global showcase

Published on May 7, 2025

ChangeNOW in Paris is Europe’s leading global event for start-ups to meet with potential investors to scale their solutions to the climate crisis. Among the standouts were ten young entrepreneurs who have honed their presentations through a joint initiative by ITC and G20 Global Land Initiative. 

Over three days, these Youth Ecopreneurs showcased their businesses, met with potential clients, and engaged with over 40 investors. They also exchanged ideas with fellow changemakers and showcased their climate-smart ventures at the Youth Ecopreneur Booth. Whether tackling sustainable agriculture, biotechnology, robotics, or land restoration, their work underscored one clear message: youth are not waiting for change—they are creating it.
