Does your startup tackle the triple planetary crisis?

SELECT by Growth Studio offers ongoing, comprehensive support over a 24-month journey. The first 12 months focus on intensive acceleration, providing startups with dedicated mentorship, development, and preparation for market entry and investment readiness. The following 12 months continue with growth support, giving startups access to resources, opportunities, and guidance to sustain and scale their success.

SELECT by Growth Studio is specifically tailored for startups that are addressing the triple planetary crisis, which includes climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution. Ideal applicants are those seeking their first or second substantial seed round and who have a clear balance between profit and purpose. Startups with a strong vision for an exit strategy and enthusiastic founders committed to making the most of the programme’s resources and mentorship are highly encouraged to apply.

This active mentorship ensures that you receive the practical support needed to drive real progress.
