As one of 574 applicants from Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden, Traceless takes part in one of the largest competitions for sustainable entrepreneurship - the Postcode Lotteries Green Challenge. Today, the expert jury has announced the 25 start-ups that have made it through the first stages of the international competition supporting green entrepreneurs. And traceless is one of them! This means we are still in the running to be considered for the grand prize of 500,000 euros. Yes, that is half a million euros!
Early September we will hear whether traceless is one of the five finalists, and if we are invited to join the final round on 14 October 2021. Then, the start-ups will pitch their ideas to an international jury, which will select the start-up to win the first prize of €500,000 and a runner-up, winning €200,000. The other three finalists will receive €100,000 each. In addition to the prize money, all finalists will also receive six months of expert coaching to optimise their business opportunities.
