The Green Innovation Challenge is a five-week programme devised by Undaunted’s Climate Solutions Catalyst and the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH). Teams, comprising early career researchers from Imperial and researchers at UKCEH, are busy developing their ideas, deep diving into customer discovery, prioritising and testing risky assumptions, designing business models and honing innovation, pitching and storytelling techniques. They’ll present their final pitches at Imperial on 4 March to a team of judges, alongside a public audience, with cash prizes up for grabs!
And there’s more: take the opportunity to head over to the Sir Alexander Fleming Building foyer for the Grantham Institute Climate Research Showcase 2026 – taking place from 12.00 on the same day, just a short walk away from our Green Innovation Pitch Event. This all-day exhibition, which includes peer-led workshops and a flagship Special Lecture, is a space for dialogue and discovery.
