Introducing: four exciting additions to Rockstart’s Energy portfolio

Several times a year, Rockstart has the privilege of receiving applications from hundreds of innovators, game-changers, and pioneers behind some of the most exciting moves being made in sustainable tech. Focusing on early stage investments in Energy, AgriFood, and Emerging Tech, we support founders via industry-specific and tailored accelerator programs. 

For the Fall 2022 session, we’re delighted to introduce you to four trailblazers joining Rockstart’s Energy portfolio. Within this sector, we work hard to carefully select founders that are leading the way in renewable energy generation, low-carbon solutions, and mobility. Selected from a pool of hundreds of applications, we’re confident that these sustainably-minded startups are the real deal:  

Allihop 

Meet Allihop, the first green business travel booking platform. It is difficult for companies to access electric travel such as trains, e-cars, and e-scooters. Allihop enables the corporate world to easily book all sustainable transport in one place and lower CO2 emissions.

Bright Energy 

Shifting towards renewable energy doesn’t have to be a challenge for construction sites utilizing Bright Energy’s innovative approach to sustainable power. Combining no-nonsense hardware with easy-to-use software, Bright Energy makes it effortless for users to understand and improve their energy consumption on-site. 

Circular IQ 

Businesses can go above and beyond meeting their sustainability goals with software startup Circular IQ. Through their digital platform and circularity programs, Circular IQ is offering user-friendly pathways to improve impact on resource depletion, climate change, and waste creation.

TILER 

TILER wants to make your e-bike worth the ride with their Charging Tile. This reliable and efficient solution to charging your e-bike makes more-sustainable mobility options a breeze. In their own words: “Park the e-bike on the Charging Tile. That’s It.”

Hear what founders have to say on joining Rockstart:

“We joined Rockstart Energy for its ecosystem of support and to further develop the skills of our founding team, so we can achieve our goals faster.” Roy Vercoulen, Founder & CEO, Circular IQ
