The Design Council will support the implementation of this competition by providing bespoke support to your project.
The aim of this competition is to support ambitious, early-stage growth businesses in developing your net zero products or services to meet demand.
This support will include budget to hire the expertise of living laboratories to test your products or services with end users, so they better meet the requirement of the target market.
