Climate Collective

There is no open programme to apply to right now

Climate Collective's current site does not advertise an open, named programme with an application form. Its navigation covers only its home, about, resources and contact pages. If you are a climate-tech founder interested in its accelerator programmes, the practical step is to reach the team through its general contact channel and ask when the next intake opens.

Watch for partner-run challenges

Some opportunities linked to Climate Collective are run by other hosts rather than by Climate Collective itself. Electraverse Sparks, for example, was a startup challenge presented by IEEMA at its ELECRAMA show, with Climate Collective as an ecosystem partner; its window has closed. When you see a challenge associated with Climate Collective, check who actually hosts it and where applications are submitted before you apply.

Check the stage fit

Climate Collective describes its focus as startups working on solutions that reduce greenhouse-gas emissions. If your venture is in the climate-tech space, that focus is the first thing to confirm against any programme you are considering.

Climate Collective Foundation is a climate-tech startup support organisation that works with early-stage founders building solutions to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions. It is run as a registered foundation and gives its address as Pandurangapuram, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. It describes itself as a startup support body for the climate-tech sector in South Asia, and says it has grown a wider network of Global South enterprise support organisations beyond India.

How its support works

Climate Collective does not list an open, named programme or application intake on its site at the moment. It describes its work as onboarding startups into accelerator programmes each year, and it says it helps channel early-stage capital into climate tech by connecting founders with a large base of investors. Past activity has also included collaborations with other hosts: it appeared as an ecosystem partner on Electraverse Sparks, a startup challenge presented by the Indian Electrical & Electronics Manufacturers' Association (IEEMA) at the ELECRAMA 2025 show, whose application window has since closed. That challenge was hosted by IEEMA, not by Climate Collective.

Scale

On its homepage Climate Collective reports that it has evaluated more than 3,000 startup applications and supported more than 1,532 startups to date, and that it onboards over 200 startups each year into its accelerator programmes. It also says its work is supported by close to 592 investors and that its community is more than 30,000 members strong. These are the organisation's own self-reported figures.

Who runs it

Climate Collective's About page names Pratap Raju and Nalin Agarwal as founding partners. The organisation is set up as Climate Collective Foundation and holds charitable and foreign-contribution registrations as a foundation.

Locations

The organisation's About, Contact and homepage pages all give its address as H.No.7-5-75/1, Pavan Sagar Apts, Near Panduranga Temple, Pandurangapuram, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh 530003. Our existing listing recorded Mumbai, Maharashtra; the organisation's own pages consistently give Visakhapatnam instead.
