CleanEquity Monaco 2010 - Registration Now Open |
|
London, UK, 13 October 2009. CleanEquity Monaco announces the launch
of its new website. Registration for the March 4th and 5th 2010 event
is now open. The conference showcases up to 50 of the world's most
exciting next generation clean technology companies. Delegates will
comprise top-level specialist investors, established industry
players, key policy makers and media representatives, national and
international.
CleanEquity are pleased to announce the support of The Stelios
Philanthropic Foundation, who will be joining Monaco hosts and
collaborators, the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation and the
Monte-Carlo SBM. The Stelios Foundation's key objectives, the "Three
E's": Education, Entrepreneurship and Environment, are synergistic
with the event's core mission. CleanEquity has included these tenets
over the past three years via its university competition, awards
ceremony and sponsorships. CleanEquity will be working closely with
the Stelios Foundation to further encourage active involvement from
international university students. Benefactor, Stelios Haji-Ioannou,
is offering the "Stelios Award for Young Cleantech Entrepreneur". The
prize will consist of a ¤ 10,000 gift, which will be presented at the
CleanEquity awards ceremony on Friday 5th March - exact terms will be
explained on the CleanEquity website.
At the recent UN General Assembly meeting, over 100 world nations
emphasised their support in the fight against climate change; a call
for necessary action to take place at Copenhagen in December was
constantly reiterated. Given the implications of these policies on
all CleanEquity participants, our partner, the United Nations
Environment Program Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), will be present in
March to guide delegates and companies through the regulatory
challenges that lie ahead and the implications on investment,
innovation and entrepreneurship.
In keeping with the objective of providing next generation cleantech
companies with the necessary tools to successfully commercialise
their technologies, a select group of corporate finance advisors and
communications firms have been chosen to partner with Innovator
Capital. This corporate finance consortium includes: Bio-Code
Incubation (Tokyo), Invest Securities (Paris) and Navigator Capital
Advisors (Mumbai). The public relations, media and communications
partnership comprises: Allen & Caron (New York); Carbon International
(London); Concept and Zzebra PR (Mumbai) and MC Services (Munich).
The Clean Technology industry continues to evolve and CleanEquity has
further refined its company selection process - an original and
strategic business plan is a prerequisite and a creative, tactical
marketing plan to instil confidence in investors and strategic
partners is essential to ensure successful commercialisation. The
following three organisations have already been selected to present
at next year's event:
* Big Room (Canada) has attracted significant press in its
competition for the rights to operate the Dot Eco (.eco) Internet
extension. This new top level domain would join existing
extensions like .com, .org, and .info. Big Room's vision for .eco
is to create an open, global platform for companies,
organisations, and people to share their actions towards
sustainability. Co-founder Trevor Bowden notes, "this is a unique
opportunity for the global sustainability community to come
together to build an innovative tool for transparency".
* Planet Green Bottle Corporation (PGBC - Canada), is sole licensor
and co-developer of a unique technology from Wells Plastics (UK).
The technology, which PGBC sells as an additive, is blended with
virgin or recycled PET pellets during the manufacturing process,
and contrary to their competition, incurs no implementation costs
or disruption to the recycling stream, while maintaining the
shape and functionality of a standard PET container for at least
2 years before it begins to oxo-biodegrade within 20
years compared to the current 1000+ year standard.
* Riversimple (UK) will be exhibiting its open source urban
technology demonstrator at the 2010 CleanEquity vehicle display.
Riversimple believes that to affect a total industry shift
towards energy efficient vehicles, it is not just the final
products that need to be re-designed, the business model and
value network must be redesigned too.
CleanEquity provides these companies with access to all the resources
they will need through the various stages of development. Video
interviews with CEOs, compliments of etv Media Group (2009 videos can
be seen at www.cleanequity.tv) and complimentary press release
distribution by CleanEquity's partner, the Hugin Group are available
again this year. All presenting companies will be eligible to be
nominated for the CleanEquity Awards, which will be presented by
H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco at the closing session.
