The main objective of this program is to catalyze green technological entrepreneurship in Algeria. To achieve this, the program will support project leaders in the creation of new products, processes and services in the following areas:
The aim is to curtail waste generation, particularly hazardous waste, by promoting the reuse and recycling of waste, as well as enhancing the efficiency of waste treatment with innovative solutions.
By promoting sustainability within urban environments. This entails the promotion of sustainable building materials, the advancement of eco-friendly transportation solutions, and the reduction of air and liquid pollution.
By promoting the production, storage and access to renewable energies, in particular with regard to the decentralized production of solar energy and the conversion of renewable energies into green hydrogen.
Through the development of cleaner production technologies to prevent and mitigate negative impacts on the environment, in particular those damaging biodiversity.
Through the development of innovative solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This encompasses enhancing resource efficiency within export value chains and supporting households and businesses in adapting to climate change.
The GreenTech Algeria 2023 support program is structured into two
integral phases:
The Bootcamp: An intensive 4-day practical training program that equips
participants with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in the green
tech landscape.
Technical Support Program: A 4-week initiative designed to provide
ongoing guidance and assistance to project teams as they navigate the
complexities of green entrepreneurship.
At the end of these programs, participating teams will have the
opportunity to showcase their innovative solutions before a panel of
experts, who will select the deserving winners.
As part of the "Development of digital and green entrepreneurship in
Algeria" project, funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic
Cooperation and Development and implemented by GIZ, the Ministry of
the Knowledge Economy, Start-ups and Microenterprises is organizing
"GreenTech Algeria 2023" program from 20 September to 07 December
