Announcement reposted from Amazon Europe:
Brand owners with early-stage businesses registered in the EU, UK or Switzerland can now apply for the Amazon Sustainability Accelerator programme. Successful participants will receive £20,000 in grants and credits, expert mentorship and free account management to help scale their business.
With a rising customer interest in sustainable shopping, we’ve collaborated with EIT Climate-KIC, Europe’s leading climate innovation hub, to design a 10-week programme tailored for early-stage startups that are building consumer products, packaging technologies or circular economy solutions that have a positive impact on the environment.
The startups that participated in last year’s programme raised more than £5.1M in funding within six months of completion. They also increased their on- and off-Amazon sales by more than 240%.
Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and successful participants will be announced in August 2024.
