Globally climate change is a 85 trillion business opportunity. If you are an entrepreneur interested in exploring ideas that tackle climate change, or if you are a company wanting to explore the opportunities in climate change or how it will impact on your business model in the future, you should book your place on 2oCamp workshop, organised by CoLab, Letterkenny Institute of Technology (County Donegal, Ireland), together with Sustainable Nation. This one day workshop will be held the 16th May, Tuesday, from 10:00 to 16:30. The event will walk you through all the steps in developing your idea or business further. It is free, but you do need to have the beginnings of an idea.
The aim of the event is to increase the awareness of the opportunities in climate change and tackle climate change through entrepreneurship. The 2oCamp is for individuals and companies that have an idea and want to explore their idea in more detail. Attendants get the tools to assess it, develop the idea further and get the beginning of a pitch deck. The methodology applied is based on shortened version of the Climatelaunchpad methodology.
The workshop will be facilitated by Ron Immink, the entrepreneur-in-residence for Sustainable Nation. Ron has an extensive background in working with entrepreneurs and businesses, is an expert in innovation and strategy, speaks on the topic of business regularly and is a best selling author of a number of books on business planning.
