Vertigo Ventures is delighted to team up with the Young Foundation and MetroLab as the sponsor of the first ever Climate Challenge Cup!

This new international competition aims to elevate and scale transformative civic research partnerships between research bodies, civic organisations and local communities- with the overall goal to combat climate change. The competition will involve two categories:

  • Achieving net zero emissions
  • Climate change adaptation

As part of our sponsorship, we will be offering all 12 finalists free access to our ImpactTracker software and helping them to later publish and showcase their innovative projects onto TrackImpact.org, our recently launched global collaboration platform.

This will enable finalists to track their projects and research directly against the UN’s SDGs and demonstrate their social, economic and environmental impact.

This sponsorship aligns with our mission to embed impact reporting for a sustainable future by supporting pioneering research organisations, civic authorities and local communities across the UK and US that are driving positive climate action.
